Seagate Global Business Services (Malaysia) Sdn. Bhd. Employee Reviews & Ratings

Salary for experienced engineers is often low compared to ROI, as benchmarking is done in UK & NI only, not taking border into consideration, so can be a high turnover of employees. Annual Leave is stationary, small increase after 2 years, but no increase after 10, 20 or 30 years service.

Job Security: Inconsistent; hiring and firing dynamics create uncertainty. They follow the principle of 'hire today & fire tomorrow'. I saw many such lives suffer. Roadmap: Lack of clear project roadmaps poses challenges. Management: Unfortunately, management falls short of expectations. Technology: Significantly lags behind current industry standards. Competitors: Minimal competition due to non-alignment with market needs. Product Development: Overreliance on HDDs, slow delivery of new products, and discontinuation of promising projects due to budget constraints are prevalent issues. Future Outlook: The management seems disconnected from a forward-looking strategy. Regrettably, Seagate has lost the brilliance and vibrancy it once possessed.

Not one thing should Change

High stress. No Job Security. Constant layoffs.

Pay is not comparable to the industry. Its lower

None none none none none

low salary no benefit no medical insurance

nothing much to say about it

Slow to give up on pointless ineffective procedures. E.g., Thermal Scanners.

MN is cold in winter

Management has no roadmap for the future. Managers are so reluctant to accept challenging projects. Everyone is just waiting for retirement.

At times hike can be less

Struggling to find meaningful work

Dynamic, Work under Pressure, fix Bonus

Somewhat of an old technology

hours may not work for some people, break time lengths,

Depending on area, you could be layoff (semi-frequent layoffs are common)

Slow career progression. Salary may be lower than average.

Pay is low, occasional long days due to global nature of company

Sometimes processes are too heavy which may restricts the speed of the work

slow in salary increment and promotions

Nothing as such to mention

They are currently cutting down size.

Some departments more important than others, but not recognised

Wages abit on lower side.

Top management sometimes micromanaging. Lower level voices not reach management level.

Slow career progress and development

- Low bonus - No prospect - Unconscious Biases - Many taking advantage of the lenient system - Manager oblivious to toxic behaviours

Salaries are lower, bonuses are rare

no downsides working here very good,

Remote, M&A caused too much worry over status

Poor direction and poor management

N/A no cons in my opinion

Too many organizations without clear breakdown.

No cons I have to say

long hours and lots of work

not too many cons dude

Always fire fighting without actually coming up with real long term solutions. Budget constraints when carrying out new projects or work.

The career path of engineer hardly go on in Thailand.

Unstable business, frequent layoff, excess resources

Not a place for people with ambition

Less fast promotion for entry level.

no future in hard disk industry

I wish there had been some more tangible help than a $25 dollar per month expense option for Covid. I ended up purchasing $500 of hardware to furnish my home office and at $25 per month it didn’t really feel worth my time to expense. I’m still looking for a decent chair for working at home.

Pay, management. Very top heavy company with massive pay discrepancy between workers and management.

kindly working environment and cooperation teamwork culture

Annual leaves are on the low side.

Uncertainty about future, lay offss, pay cuts

The tech I was working on was not particularly new or fresh. I was working on interesting problems, but it was not very exciting. Layoffs are the second huge bummer. This was true when my teammates were laid off, and then (of course) when I was laid off less than two months after I was back from my parental leave. I was transitioning into a new role, so navigating that transition while also transitioning into working motherhood, and felt kind of set up to be on the chopping block. It was shocking and demoralizing to see talented, well-liked senior colleagues with decades of company experience get chopped.

good work environment with safety aspects
