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

When a project goes according to plan you can work with some great people and make decent money.

Cons

Bad behavior is tolerated when you have a weak team member. They are allowed to remain on payroll, even if they do not effectively contribute. The burden is often placed on the team members willing to pick up the slack. Promotions are not given to the most qualified. They are randomly assigned. There are some horrible scoring directors as a result.
