Pros

For someone looking to work 24/7 can join this company. Likes high turnover, and can work until die for the company. For individuals that are workaholic Medical benefits are bare minimum. Long working hours Many career opportunities because high turnover rate If you like to be criticized daily, this company is for you!

Cons

Expect to be exploited Company that practices non-empathic, and micro managing. Bias Pay for your own psychiatrist. Prefer to have no family commitments employee Loosely managed strategy and company growth. Calculative managers and non-emphatic Ask employee to take MC for last few days of employment because there is no work for resigned employee. Many contract employees and outsourced from GELM and other outsourcing agency. Multiple systems for leave application, payslips etc., front end system, core system. Forever got system problem not willing to invest for new system. Core system just implemented where other companies already use for over two decades. When C-level leaves the company, management ask employees to contribute for the “departure gift” When you are “useless”, department head will not treat you as visible.
