Pros

MNC exposure of working with people from different countries, able to work with various groups locally and internationally, good start for fresh graduates.

Cons

Extremely unorganized management and frequent shutdowns every quarter. Employee are often at crossroads due to this. Low motivation due to the upcoming merger and bleak future in the industry. Volume is dropping frequently. It is known to be an equal opportunity employer regardless of race/religion/sex but the gym in Malaysia has female workout hours on 2 working days (after office hours) which clearly discriminates the males and does not follow their motto.

Pros

- The company itself is doing well financially, allowing departments to take on bigger projects - Great work-life balance culture and unlimited PTO that actually allows for generate usage - Casual culture that encourages collaboration - Non-salary benefits are strong, with even lower-level employees benefiting from the stock purchase plan

Cons

- Despite its strong position, the company does trim headcount for the sake of efficiency - Work ethic seems complacent, but is offset by company's strong financial standing - Management can be cut-throat, but strong performers usually do well - Salaries are below market rate
