Pros

In RIA Malaysia, we practice no mask policy. Whenever you arrive office, you are allow to take off your mask immediately and walk around. Don't worry because all bosses and other staffs also do the same. Perfect for those who feel difficulty to breath and want freedom from mask. Boss will help you if you got covid. You may continue come to office.

Cons

Arrogant boss. Always like to raise his voice and being childish to his staff. Feel not comfortable when he always scold people in the meeting and show no respect to his staff. Worst workplace in Plaza Sentral compare to Q Sentral where we originally sitting at. No budget with all low cost office and equipment. Q Sentral has building security access, renovated clean toilet, clean nice comfortable workplace. Plaza Sentral Block 2B level 11 like ghost area with low light. Toilet is super duper dirty. They feel very proud. No career development and growth is super low and slow. US and Spain is not trusting and empower people in Malaysia. Not fair to everyone. Some people can choose wfh all the time. Some people can choose wfh 4 days a week. And some have to force to come 3 days to office and 2 days in office. And US team working in MY can decide on their own. No bonus and no increment for covid time.

Pros

Not many pros here. For some its the people, for others its the free lunch once a week. Free food wasnt important to me.

Cons

Initial onboarding was nonexistent. The culture is very every man for himself which really hinders collaboration even though thats the justification for being in a hybrid work schedule. Senior Management is terrible at managing the business so instead they bring in a consulting firm (not out of the ordinary) to make recommendations on where the business should be headed. They are far behind competitors in terms of product offerings, reliability, and trust because there is too much bureaucracy. The physical retail stores have become a hinderance for the company. Career advancement is not something managers will work with you on unless you constantly ask and even then there is no clear progression plan or support to reach that goal for yourself. Work will start and then stop because "someone disagrees" - more tenured employees will complain and use that tenure to try and either take credit for something or top work they think we shouldn't do when its not their decision. They will lay you off due to cost saving measures and then rehire your role in another country to save money. You will be paid under market value and your annual raise will be a paltry 2% mostly eaten up by taxes. They say they offer bonuses but that is inconsistent and if you do get one again it will be small and non-impactful and be eaten up by taxes. Their internal recognition program is not great. Most people submit for their friends rather than people doing impactful work. Feels like a popularity contest.
