Unpredictable leadership - layoffs are common

slow on promotions in higher ranks

lower salary than the competitor.

Shrinking industry with continued lay offs and low morale

Salary increment and promotion is slow

no Cons to add now

Not good future career for young engineers

Permanent shifts for those not used to shift works. 12 hours.

Constant layoffs and poor upper leadership

Boring job. Not suitable for those who are seeking challenge in career they want.

Remote workers are hard to communicate with

- Company has a myopic vision and is stuck on HDD tech - Shortsighted when it comes to business decisions - impatient with new ideas and how long it will take to make them profitable

- Many process to access

poor compensation slow and steady growth

It's very hard to earn money from selling HDD nowsaday. Top management taking care of themselves and investors by cutting costs and pushing stock dividend. The talented employees who are capable to find jobs elsewhere, already gone.

The work can sometimes be pretty boring

Management doesn't have clear future plan.

1. Endless context switching that leads to zero results and constant stress 2. ZERO transparency 3. No room for feedback 4. Engineering managers have no technical skills 5. Management gaslighting and bullying employees who dare to ask questions

Not enough promotions handed out

Alot of Legacy issues which hinders the growth of the company

Wages, not much progression atm

Attrition rate is high CTC is not great compare to Bangalore

Shift work but a lot of time off

- Mechanical engineering work is not challenging enough - Nature of work is a little all over the place. Would have helped if the work was a little more focused and structured.

internship to employment conversion, area, new employees to old one's ratio, career progression, small teams

Consistent layoffs Lack of clear communication from C-Suite level leadership Poor compensation base and compensation increase with time/promotion Navigating internal policies and procedures consumes 60% of time Inconsistent messages from different level of leadership

Micro management, and too many small circles.

- If you work at Asia region, mostly you just been treat like a cheap resources ( not human ), this is very typical under Asia region management. ( they just could not understand running cheap and big is just one of the option, not the only option ) - Many talents leaves because of management, because not been treat like talent instead of cheap resources. - less Opportunities in career, because promotion mean extra cost to company. ( probably Asia site )

Layoffs are rampant and staff is discouraged.

Unnecessary busy work Opportunity to grow is minimal and slow Too structured and routine

No OT for a year at least

Work from home-- no inperson work

No cons working at this company

work can be monotonous for a while but it gets better

Currently the company is losing money so they had to do a few layoffs this year

Mgt seems clueless and job stability not there

Benefit and salary not competetive

nothing is there about cons

Nothing that i can think of right now

As Seagate Technology (Senai) is located in suburb of Johor Bahru, some vendor trainings like the Veeam seminar are no held in Senai or Johor Bahru, causing you to miss out on some opportunities to stay up to date.

Fast peace environment. If can't take pressure suggest not to join.

weak salary, no advancement. lacking benefits

Low salary compared to new manufacturing companies in the region.

Plenty of room and available tool to streamline and automate process. However some middle / junior management are not receptive yet, change is slow
