Pros

Great exposure to multinational clients across APAC. Supportive team environment and strong collaboration across countries. Opportunities to work with advanced systems (SAP, FSCM, GetPaid) and develop problem-solving skills.

Cons

Career progression heavily influenced by internal politics and favoritism. Senior management decisions often lack fairness and transparency. Workload is very demanding during month- and quarter-end closings. Limited recognition for individual contributions despite performance
