I'm grateful and owe them thanks for giving me my very first job, but that doesn't change the fact that it’s the worst company I've worked for in my 15+ years of experience across various companies. I don't know if things are still the same, but I hope for the best and wish for improvements in its structure and policies—especially for the rank-and-file employees. The good thingsThe employees in my department, along with a few others from outside of it.
The challengesThe pay grade is very low, which doesn’t help considering you're required to work six days a week, with only minimal salary increases. HR often reminds employees that they should be grateful for only having to work half a day on Saturdays.
The company uses recycled paper for photocopying and strictly monitors its usage. While this is good for cost-cutting, it becomes a hassle if you need to photocopy large volumes, something I didn’t experience in other companies.
There are no excuses accepted for being late—even during floods or bad weather—unless HR is affected. In that case, they make exceptions to avoid being marked late themselves.
The number of leave credits is very limited, and you're forced to use them if you want to take a Saturday off to enjoy a full weekend.
The worst experience is that they turn off the air conditioning an hour before the workday ends.
