      Solid products and good work-life balance, but poor leadership

      Product management
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Legacy business with solid products in the right areas and a good reputation among customers. Work life balance is excellent with many managers being family oriented Very good pension scheme and healthcare

      Cons

      - Poor leadership who are inexperienced - Hard work not rewarded promotions given off friendships - No accountability, hardly anyone actually does their job - Declining business with low salaries and budgets - Japanese mentality from the 90s still rife - Little to no social activities - Mass redundancies have caused those who remain to be overworked and underpaid - No career or salary progression whatsoever

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      So far, the surrounding of my area and workload is okay. Pressured only when there were adhoc. The colleagues there are nice who has the same level as i do

      Cons

      In terms of pay, i can say it is still below par for somebody who has worked for 4 years.
