Pros

One thing that stands out about GF are the unique opportunities to engage with upper management. There are loads of networking events and groups to help build your career and get you comfortable with the job. Lots of training when you are hired. Many outlets to career build and a fun, growing industry. Really solid benefits.

Cons

Some work becomes monotonous. Lots of tedious paperwork to complete actual engineering work. Work relations with technicians can become difficult.

Pros

Receiving the CEO Award has been an incredible honor and a defining moment in my career at GF. This achievement is not just a personal milestone but a reflection of the collaborative and innovative culture that GF fosters. My time at GF has been filled with opportunities to drive meaningful change. From tackling complex challenges in facility management, to collaborating with talented colleagues across departments, every project has been a learning experience. The company's commitment to excellence and continuous improvement has always motivated me to push boundaries and seek innovative solutions. This achievement would not have been possible without the support and guidance of my boss, Bernard Liew, whose leadership and encouragement have inspired me to strive for excellence. I would also like to extend my heartfelt appreciation to my engineers who are always showing passionate in work. Their contributions have been invaluable, and I am grateful to work alongside such talented individuals. What sets GF apart is its culture of empowerment and support. Leadership encourages initiative, and there is a strong emphasis on teamwork and personal growth. The recognition I have received through the CEO Award is a testament to this environment—where hard work, dedication, and innovative thinking are valued and celebrated. For anyone considering joining GF, I can confidently say that this is a place where you can grow, make a real impact, and be part of something bigger. Stay curious, embrace challenges, and never hesitate to share your ideas— because here, your contributions truly matter. I am grateful for the support of my colleagues and leadership throughout this journey, and I look forward to continuing to contribute to GF’s success.

Cons

Still have room for improvement in work life balance. But no pain, no gain...
