Pros

1. Most employees working here are fun to work and communicate with 2. Working culture is generally good 3. Staff benefits is also very good compare to other companies (EPF Employer contribution is 16%)

Cons

1. Some division heads have tunnel vision and a traditionalist. Not open for ideas nor encourage creativity. 2. Marketing initiative is either non-existent or slow. Still pushing box selling instead of solution selling approach. 3. Pre & Post Sales support had generally very weak in terms of knowledge and skill sets. Did not keep up to the latest IT technology and trend. 4. HR had no clue on career development for employees and they expect the employees to come out with a development plan itself! HR personnel not friendly nor approachable.
