Pros

Great colleagues (honestly!), great new polished office building. 200MYR for dental or optical insurance claim per year, 1 month bonus fixed every year + global bonus (based on global profits) + KPI bonus.

Cons

No HR hired for months, too emotional managers, ineffective language and editorial training Frequently changing and confusing workflow. Never put the burden and blame to the editors. My team were heavily burdened with lots of titles, and editors keep quitting, without quick replacement. Too many ad hoc decision

Pros

Good work-life balance, mostly. It is a place where you will learn a lot of things as young people are given a lot of opportunities to do things on their own.

Cons

Senior management lacks vision, and it is a very top heavy structure. The HR department in India is biased, high-handed and unfair.
