Growth culture, independence, accountability, develop connections with industry
On call, no work life balance
Great place for rookie reporters. Understanding bosses, nice colleagues. Work arrangement is okay.
The benefits are not so good. HR, especially that person whose name starts with K, was quite horrible. Really tried to shortchange me in every way and trap me into agreeing to everything. Glad I found out when I spoke to the person who interviewed me. What was agreed between them after my interview did not translate into my offer.
Learn a bit of knowledge
Culture wise, it's not good
Great work environment and supportive colleagues.
Many of the staff are old timers. Younger staff don’t have much opportunities to grow as the top positions are all held by those who have been there for decades. Over the years, the benefits have also been reduced a lot.
You do learn many things
Bureaucracy and red tapes can sometimes get in the way
good friends around and fun friends
bosses are manic and always have to impress the big boss even if it doesnt make sense, even if u suggested a logic and simpler way, bosses wont fight for u but follow big boss.
Good exposure as you are not tied to just one industry but all.
Need to digitalize some processes for better efficiency
experience in handling events and gain little connections
super busy, unsystematic, last-minute, no proper plan, low salary, basically just exploiting u
Good health insurance coverage but only for individual
the whole management, HR, bosses, have no empathy. Underlying racism within every decision made. You are expected to be a robot and work for the company and no such thing as personal problems are allowed to interfere your work.
good pay. hr team is nice.
worst supervisor. didn't teach newbies. expects people to know everything by yourself. very toxic.
