Reviews are confusing and the scale is weird.
Information service department - assistant manager
- Massive investment in information technology. OOCL keep used most updated technologies such as cloud computing, big data and blockchain. -Intermediate supervisors and technicians have the excellent technical skill, experience, and knowledge. - After being acquired by COSCO, it becomes part of a state-owned enterprise and has more significant advantages in resources and the Chinese market. - Many of the employees are friendly, the office politics is not too serious, the work is stable and the working hours are not long. - Most employees are friendly, the office politics is not too serious, your job is stable and the working hours are reasonable. - Spend a lot on junior staff training. - They spend a lot on technology.
- The entire department is too divided into multiple functional teams, not products/project or businesses line. The result is bureaucracy, limited view and inability to maximize business value. - The replacement of management is too slow. Many higher-level managements have served for more than 20 years and still dominate the company's development after years of no results. - The evaluation of employees is outdated, and it is basically what the supervisor thinks of you, not what your output, insights or attempts change. - There is a problem with the HR management. They treat employees as screws, and they will not seek or keep talents. The salary level is average, and many excellent employees buried. - Top-down management, coupled with the arrogance and aging of management, has led to a lack of innovation and error correction. - This company did not combine the business department with its excellent IT department. That's why the digital transformation not yet success.

Customer service representative
Most of your fellow colleagues are in the same boat, just trying to get by and not make waves.
Management promotes, and along with HR, fails to discipline bad managers/supervisors. The bad people get moved around until they are someone else's problem, but never fired. Complaints are not taken seriously. You are retaliated against (directly, and indirectly--but good luck proving it, the system is designed in their favor). The rank and file are consistently and repeatedly blamed for poor management decisions, poor training, poor guidance, etc. Zero accountability, but they will take all the credit when times are good. Avoid at all costs.
