Not the best

Pros

Decent pay and not too difficult of a job. Much of what needs to be done can be finished in a few hours, and the rest of the shift is spent killing time.

Cons

Boredom is tantamount, as it is almost never busy. The worst thing to deal with is a lack of respect from employers. I am often told to do the work of other employees, do things not in my job description, and work inconsistent schedules. Although the manager has a perfect schedule with an extra hour of overtime added every day, no one else is promised even the normal amount of full-time hours. Boss collects overtime while all other employees work whatever hours they're given because apparently the business can barely afford it.

Pros

Flexible working time, flexible working arrangement (work from office/home), friendly colleagues, good salaries and benefits (you can earn 5-figure salary as early as at the age of late 20s).

Cons

Heavy workload, a lot of legacy issues that you need to clean. Management always promote Continuous Improvement (CI) project and digitalization but no proper guidance given and simply wants the team to blindly do, in the end it is not sustainable. A lot of the hiring managers already have preferred candidate when they want to advertise a role which end up causing unfairness and favouritism because the candidate has been selected even before the role is being advertised or interviews are conducted. When questions being asked to the management, the answers given are unprofessional and not precise. Good and capable employees are being hold in the role for so long but bad and incapable employees are given with the chance to move quickly because managers dont want the 'bad weeds' to be in their team.
