Havas Malaysia Sdn. Bhd. Employee Reviews & Ratings

Can be long hours depending on work

Don't have much to say. Pay could be better.

A bit disorganized and disconnected from the rest of the international branches of the company.

Not too many opportunities right now but I am sure it’ll pick up

office environment is very good.

Low pay You need to fight for Progression Barely any development

1/ Very cheap culture, overly worked and under paid. They even promoted someone only has 6 months experience entry level worker to do a manager's job and presenting in the client's meeting. (because this is "good" friend of a director's) Also, completely lack of training but just throwing jobs to the entry level of workers with minimum training. 2/ Useless at pitching as always lose clients, there are always clients lost and minimum clients gained in the company in the monthly report. 3/Full of Political Bxllshxt - Not about how good you are but how many good "friends" you got in the agency. 4/ Blaming culture - no one willing to troubleshoot anything but lots of pointing fingers and pushing responsibilities.

Limited growth opportunities, weak pay

You will work a lot better be ready if you want a piece of the cake.

salary was not too good, projects change frequently and it's hard to follow a path

No major flaws at all.

With new clients, new people must be hired too. It gets Stressful owing to a shortage of resources

open office, no privacy, outdated finance programs

Bad Management, micro-managing, trust issues

Long hours, Some bad apple clients, but overall quite enjoyable

This is an employer but it exists better places to work for.

Hard to advance growth wise

Not as many benefits as other agencies

- Work- life balance - Less pay than average

need to pay more their good staff

An incredibly inappropriate office culture, where bullying, belittling and gossip are not only common, but encouraged and rewarded. Junior staff are pitted against one another by higher ups, competing for promises and rewards that senior management never follow up on. The environment encourages cliques and senior staff facilitate this and thrive on control and power. Common practice to be shamed not only via email, but in person in front of the entire office when a mistake is made. Witnessed senior-level executives and entry-level staff engaging in conversations about personal matters that should not be brought in to the workplace, nor shared between employers and employees. Astronomical turnover rate, which leaves employees swamped and saddled with unmanageable work loads. Disorganization in finance has employees going for months without being compensated for large sums of money they had to put on their personal credit cards for work expenses. Overall unhealthy environment to work in and has many walking away with incredibly low self-esteem.

Nothing bad to say about Havas

Can’t think of anything that is a negative

Big company evolution is slow

You really need to love agency life and work.

Bad leaders and low control on teams

Completely servicing lead agency, so most individuals work for the client, not really to cater to or deliver one unified creative campaign.

homework-life balance can be improved

Salaries are a bit lower than what you can earn working directly for a client.

Management expectations of long hours, low wages

not organized, requires, time, management

No structure in the company Old mindset people Lot of work and nightshift

It's all smoke and mirrors. It's all about self-promotion, not doing good work for their clients. Same people get promoted every year at executive level, then they pop champagne to celebrate in the face of employees who actually do the work.

Pay really bad hard promotion

Reliant on legacy business, pharma, response campaigns Does not attract top tier talent

Not too many cons at Havas besides scope of work. I was looking to leave because I wanted to work on different material.

bad management and not very good training

Management and Digital aspect are low
