SGS (Malaysia) Sdn. Bhd

Some aggressive colleagues that are impolite

Pay & management & no incentives

I do not recommend to work at SGS from employee point of view. As a TIC company, employees are often perceived as being valued primarily for their ability to generate revenue, while employee well-being does not appear to receive attention from management. From high management, there is strong emphasis on continuous (and unrealistic) increase on the output, while no support on development or growth on the employee. Project scheduling is frequently experienced as unrealistic, with tight timelines imposed by centralized scheduling teams, that demands to work extra time. Even in critical sectors, there appears to be limited emphasis on work quality compared with speed and cost. It appears to foster an unhealthy workplace culture overall, despite the efforts of SGS to promote a positive image on social media. There is limited genuine care or investment in employee well-being, and warning signs of risky or inappropriate/unethical behaviors are often overlooked rather than addressed. If you are looking for a company that values its employees, prioritizes well-being, and maintains high professional standards, I would not recommend this place.

LOW SALARY Unclear package (Intentional)

Strict work from office policy

Implicit expectation you stay for overtime, as work is rarely done by the time the day ends. If you're not interested in working in a lab, this is not the place for you.

Insufficient teammates, always need to work for long hours No paid OT

Very little training. No management support. No team culture.

- low paying wages - long extra hours - work sometimes becomes too repetitive and tedious

Managment do not care about employee wellbeing. Low pay, long hours, no overtime. Laboratory environment is depressing, and it shows amongst the employees who are trapped there.
