    Fast pace environment and self-growth

    Fantastic & Fast-paced environment
    The good thingsI have really enjoyed working here, This company has provided me with valuable skills and learning opportunities over my course of employment .I feel time flies and I don’t mind the struggle. I spent hours refining, and the process of progression to get what we want. The end goal of producing something amazing is worth it. I find myself interested in learning extra things that I am not directly responsible for it
    The challengesOverall, I am satisfied with the way management has guided me in my job. I worked with my mentor to produce something and make it into reality. The management empowers new employees like me to feel independent from the beginning, They always encourage me to be more innovative and generate new ideas to add value to the company’s success.

    Not a place to grow your career
    The good thingsYou learn how to deal to egomania, challenging demands and ever critical reviews and inspections. Budding young graduates may pick up some experience in a less structured setting. Learn to work in a team but be prepared to be accountable and responsible individually
    The challengesDealing with sarcasm, scorn and ambiguous respect for the individual. Problems are generally personalized rather than evaluated from root cause aspects. Bonuses are usually deferred to late in the following year to discourage year end departures.

    Great internship/working experience!
    The good thingsI received an one-month internship extension offer due to satisfactory work performance. The co-workers were friendly and the RA executives were willing to teach and coach so that we received clearer instructions and committed better performance and result at work. Human Resource was efficient and helpful.
    The challengesNew exposure of different working environment. Pharmaceutical is a whole brand new field of work for me but glad that I was accepted by XSP to obtain new knowledge and abilities other than my field (Biotechnology).

    Sales Manager
    The good thingsI was given the flexibility and freedom but monitored to do my job and use my creativity in developing my sales team and focus growing the sales number. Few top management although they are entering retirement age, do support my short, mid and long term planning for the team expansion and the product growth in capturing the market.
    The challengesThe company is moving towards modernization (young & aggressive employees with new tech in the production line) but for some simple urgent approval matters took some times & few layers of decision making. Delegation of some degree of decision making should be passed down to 1st line managers.
