Pros

Very good in delighting their people. They continuously inform (Regional HQ) their Philippine counterpart about the directions of the company. Well represented and professional.

Cons

Local counterparts (some division) are game changers. They tend to change every Regional Directions and implicate their subordinates and cut their advancements to the point that talents & performers move out.

Pros

Strong business with diverse product offering. Good people to work with.

Cons

More forward thinking needed. The coompany has not moved with the times and modern trends over the last decade, and is now paying the price (consumer space). Needs to re-think long-term strategy and probably will become a B2B and move away from B2C to a large degree.
