    A dynamic role full of growth and new challenges.
    The good thingsSmooth recruitment and onboarding process
    The challengesNot at the moment as I have only been in this role for one month, so it is too early for me to provide meaningful feedback on challenges. I am still in the learning and onboarding phase.

    Central Region1 to 2 years in the role, current employee
    Company needs a proper structure and capable leaders.
    The good thingsYou pretty much get to do everything, including things you are totally not supposed to do.
    The challengesYou pretty much get to do everything, including things you are totally not supposed to do. To explain more, assume that you are hired as a sales person, you are now tasked to do EDM, then artwork and design, then marketing, then copywriting... that's not enough, now you have to find sponsors, you have to curate events, you have to plan the whole event. That's not all.. you are tasked to support other Business units, helping them do minutes, organize meetings, travel overseas, run roadshows etc. 1 person's salary but 10 men's job.

    Challenging job
    The good thingscolleagues are friendly and well-bonded, work-life balance (depending on the department you are in), free food during events, some department superiors are astonishing friendly and good hence they are relatively easy to work with
    The challengesold fashioned thinking, management should listen more from the village. strict on taking AL (but then again, depending on the department you are in), inflexibility, low wages/salary package. High turnover.
