Seagate Global Business Services (Malaysia) Sdn. Bhd.

Career Progression abit stagnant here

They operate in an aggressive market, when times get tough they have a track record ruthlessly cutting staff.

Layoffs every 2-4 years. Compensation package lags behind the industry, especially if you work in software. Management cycles through over hiring and layoffs.

A lingering uncertainty about the business - used as an excuse to block promotions and payrises when downturn cycles hit. Aging management structure - mostly all over 50 with no opportunity to go into senior roles for anyone else. Definitely still stuck in the corporate boardroom culture of the 1990s. Directors often crack terrible "dad jokes" while engineers give presentations for example. Flexible working - max 20% of your time at home. A lot of jobs can be done from home. Most jobs are still metrics focused/obsessed. Things like chasing single wafer scrap is a waste of time. Yet the yield team pride themselves on pretending that we can assign a root cause to every scrap issue.

the amount of salary does not meet with the work requirements

Not much room to progress

Disliked workplace drama with some employees

Being an international company with location around the world, work/life balance can be a challenge with early morning and late night meetings.

No openings for full employees.

Low salary, average benefits, can be better
