Overall, the management is chaotic, the Philippine office is not very corporate in terms of work ethics.The good thingsNo time in and time outs, no salary deduction for lates since attendance is not strictly monitored. All you have to do is to meet all your deliverables before the deadline. Managing Director is easy to approach and very friendly. Average salary, HMO for the employee and dependent on the first day.
The challengesA lot from the Philippine office is not fit in their designated position, that is the main cause of the non-stop reorganization. There are some managers who doesn't even know the company policies, and the most shocking part, they don't even know what they are doing. That's why UMG's domestic side is not as strong as their competitors in the industry. Unfair treatment to local artists in terms of opportunity, they only focuses on well established artists, they ignore the newbies in the industry.
