MNC company with a very old system and environment

Production worker

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

full medical coverage, including for dental/optical

Cons

company is too picky about skin, the system is too backward. The company can also terminate employees at will if they do not like the employee. There are too many dirty politics in it and the human relations department also colluded with the management and turned a blind eye to this happening. think before entering.
