    The good thingsFriendly and accommodating HR employees with a quick application process.
    The challengesOne challenge I experienced was the lack of salary increase despite my contributions and tenure, which made it difficult to feel fully rewarded for my work.

    You will be the company's cashcow
    The good thingsIf you're lucky enough, you will be sent to a company with good and helpful team mates.
    The challengesSalary is delayed most of the time. The salary is barely enough to make a living in the city. Management does not really care about your concerns as long as you are making money for them. If you're looking to start your IT career, LOOK ELSEWHERE.

    Ideal for fresh graduates, but only offers government-mandated benefits. That's it.
    The good things- Applicant gets hired quickly, recruiters will process the rest. - Ideal for beginners and fresh graduates who only needs a work experience. - Can ask for higher salary or increase (depending on experience).
    The challenges- Unusual salary cut-offs, causing difficulties in updating our bills. - HR/project coordinators are not that responsive in queries (but kudos to my recruiter for responding to my queries quickly). - Only offers government-mandated benefits (e.g. 5 statutory leaves, no bereavement, no bonuses etc.). - No HMO card, only the control number was provided. This will be difficult since most of the hospitals are requiring the patients to have their health card with them. -The daily-time record logging is still manual (via paper/spreadsheet), despite being an IT consultant firm.
