Star Media Group Berhad

Terrible jam once work is over, sometimes into the car park. Company politics exists, but for the most part it affects those at the top. Press freedom is as expected, though sometimes you can push the envelope. Management/the board invested and bought into things that were obviously not making money, and continued to pump money into them at the expense of every other department. Gigantic white elephant that everyone else makes fun of. Pay is low for the working hours and depending on the news, you may have no work-life balance.

Need to cut down on steps and rigid systems for this era

Organization structure unclear, workflow unclear

Management lack of direction, benefit cut, politics and trouble maker is everywhere

Salary wasn't the highest, but decent increment per annum; also, tendency towards politicisation (unavoidable as paper is majority owned by a political party). Also, if you're working in the office, you'll end up leaving the place later in the evening or night, because of traffic jams outside the SPRINT highway

-If you're in sales, the incentive/commission may not be appealing. But just like any other corporates, things are not that flexible and employees may not have a chance to make any change. -Could be quite political -Career growth could be really slow -I don't think it's transparent on how the company could sustain in the future, as newspaper is dying and the digital platforms are not that outstanding, in terms of generating revenue

Management can be quite a problem.

Everything is wrong with this company.

I cant think of one

Very demanding place to work in.
