Celestica Gbs Malaysia Sdn. Bhd. Reviews

Lack of opportunity to grow

Short term thinking, indecision, changing plans. Attrition of experienced people. Insufficient resources to perform effectively. Unclear future.

To me, some of the downsides of working at Celestica are: It is a culture of "Swim or Sink like a stone", do not expect anyone to show you anything, even you boss, he is most probably not qualified or a new hire too. You have to figure out on your own as how to get the job done. Also, there seems to be too much dysfunctional politics at all organizational levels. Finally, Celestica has the worst Work Life balance.

grew too fast and lose focus

Company has been challenged in a competitive industry. There have been layoffs over the past few years and employee morale is low. Work life balance is generally ok here.

Clestica suffers from from what I call IBM syndrom. The corporate which suppose to set directions is very often wrong and and unaware of the reality in the manufacturing sites. This leads to unnecessary expenditures and conflicts.

Long hours, poor management, no opportunity. Also there seems to be no concern for the welfare of the employees. Althought, contract manufacturing is a rough business and very competitive, but that is no reason to keep the employees in dark and unhappy.

They are letting many skilled employees go. Celestica does not care much about retaining skilled employees any more. "Anyone is replace-able." The product quality sufferes every time there are a new batch of temporary employees. Also, it seems like the cooprate office is trying to move business away its Toronto site even thought this site has the best quality records. It is a great place to work if you just want a job and not a career.

Compensation package can be further improved

Base pay is low and increases are hard to achieve
