Pros

Heavy emphasis on continuous improvement, perceived large budget for the Kuala Lumpur office since it was being expanded to be a global service hub.

Cons

Very messy reporting lines. I ended up managing several teams, all of which had separate reporting lines to the foreign HQ, hence my performance evaluation was extremely vague. High uncertainty, had to do alot of work (about 3x) that was not recognised because 2/3rds were not part of the portfolio of the main reporting line. Management are not supportive of employee education/development: even though HR policy allows for employees to apply for funding for masters programmes after 6 months in the company, the policy is not practised in reality.

Pros

Casual attire, sometimes you have great lunch provided, celebration of festive seasons, averagely 20-21 annual leaves, HR which listens to employee, reporting manager which listens to you and try to help you, PS4 or Xbox provided, colorful working environment with 2 large monitors to enhance your productivity.

Cons

Messy process. No clear of role and responsibilities. Most of the time you are doing or repeating redundant tasks, and to the extend it is not a sales role anymore. High dependencies on other people/ department to get something done. Low in resources and long turn around time to get one thing done. No proper product training provided. Most of people are clueless and unsure of what to do and who to look for. Too many redundant meetings and required to report yourself to multiple department which is a total waste of time. No marketing department to assist, sales people are required to do everything themselves, from sales to marketing to pre-sales to managing partner to non sales related administrative activities. Completely out of scope. They are not willing to hire the right people to do the right job. No co-operation and support from management from another region even though they know they must co-operate. Worst thing is sales people are not being paid commission thus lack of motivation.
