Pros

Good initial salary if bargained properly. No swipe in and swipe out timings check....

Cons

No job security at all. Not a place for married and settled people, if project is gone then high probability of getting fired. No coordination between HR recruitment team and people on talent pool (bench). There would be people on bench but they still HR would recruit from outside even though the skills match. Then the talent pool people would be fired. Firing is very normal. HR would call and say that's their policy and put people on notice period. UST global is more like a consultancy than a company, because most of their projects are client side based. So people need to work in the client offfice which will be in Bangalore, Pune or some other city.....

Cons

so, usually they have lack of projects since its the worst company per client perspective . Once you are put on bench, they will give you 2 months for yourself to find a project.If they dont have any suitable project , they will go for forced resignation else termination.I am narrating my story. Am jobless now.Please note that while hiring they will give you whatever you want and would boast of multiple opportunities and projects in the company which is a blatant lie.Would never recommend this company to a person having family.

Pros

You can get to see a few potential serious employers while you work on-site

Cons

1) HR is highly deceptive 2) Doesn't mention the 26% tax rate for the first 6 months of employment in Malaysia. They do this on purpose so you wont renegotiate a higher salary per month. 3) Claims 1 year project but projects turns out to be just for a few months, thereafter you are sent back to India. You lose your house rental deposit, can't claim your 26% tax refunds from the govt. Total loss for the employee 3) Projects are of sub par quality, mostly menial tasks that client doesn't want to bother with. If you are trying to learn and improve this is not the place to be no matter the pay which isn't high either. 4) No training of any value, costly but good training by Professionals are always cancelled because UST doesn't want to invest. 5) Pay hikes are based on how close you are to your manager, meritocracy doesn't exist. 6) You will face a lot of trouble to bring your spouse/children over to Malaysia, company personal have little or no knowledge of procedures. UST Travel dept are more interested in giving you the back seat of a lorry to travel over to Malaysia from India. Given the unattractive pay + 26% tax rate you should have a very good package before considering bring over family. 7) Best advice I can give is don't join UST, less headaches that way.
