How to survive in this company:
1. The management (excludes KWE management) practices favouritism. They like their shoes to be polished.
2. Follow the wind direction, be it right or wrong, logic or non-logic.
3. It’s ok if you don’t’ have true strength, most importantly, you must know how to talk your way through and oh yes, be a sweet talker!
4. To lie through your teeth is common in order to kill others
5. Too many “old boys & girls” from the NOL generation. These folks are too much in their comfort zone and reluctant to change for better. It’s true that APLL is a dumping ground during the split (NOL threw the unwanted staff to APLL).
Others:
• Screw the HR processes - There’s no professionalism practised by the team. There’s no logic for having such a big HR team.
• There’s no periodic salary review by HR for talent management.
• The culture is not family-friendly (what have you been doing, HR?)
• BIG IT team but POOR IT systems. There’s no logic for having such a big IT team and spending so much money on IT systems/infrastructure which can be easily outsourced for cost saving. Weak IT leadership with strong favouritism culture. If you don’t follow the wind direction set by the IT leader(s), get your throat ready to be slashed.
• Weak Corporate Administration Team with lack of knowledge in administration - disqualified team leader. The team members are far better off than the team leader.
• High turnover rate due to the negative culture, low motivation and lack of business direction at work.
