However, the overall experience really depends on the department you're assigned to. There’s a noticeable lack of strong leadership in some areas, and while the company promotes itself as innovative, it often sticks to outdated ways of working. New ideas are welcomed on the surface but rarely supported in practice.
Because of all this, I wouldn’t recommend this company for fresh graduates. The culture and politics can be overwhelming for someone just starting their career. It’s better suited for experienced professionals who already know how to navigate internal politics and advocate for themselves in the face of weak or inconsistent management.The good thingsThe company provides solid employee benefits, and the owners generally treat their people well and with respect. The facilities are clean and well-maintained, and the security staff are professional and supportive, they even help reinforce proper business conduct and attire, which adds to a sense of order in the workplace.
The challengesSocially, the environment can be difficult. While many people are kind, there’s a culture of gossip that starts as early as orientation. It’s not uncommon for long-time employees to share personal information or negative opinions about others, even before you've had a chance to form your own impressions. You may be "warned" about certain coworkers right away, which creates unnecessary tension and makes it harder to build trust and professional relationships.
In some cases, favoritism and personal biases can shape your experience. If someone in a leadership position doesn’t like you, you might find yourself unfairly treated or pressured to resign. It’s subtle, but it happens — and it creates an unhealthy work environment for those on the receiving end.
The job often doesn’t match what was promised. You may be asked to take on unrelated tasks, even personal assistant duties for department heads. The workload is heavy, but the salary doesn’t reflect it.
