Overall rating: 2/5
Employment status: current
Experience level: Junior

A bureaucracy company which is not recommended for long term job commitment
Pros: - Exposure to various industry and projects
- Multinational firm with a many foreigners / Asian speaking native English
Cons: - Serious OT and seems it is a norm to the people working here. If you want work-life balance, this is not the place for you.
- Performance evaluation system is terrible. Lots of politics involved. If you want to get promotion/ get good grade (linked to your salary adjustment/ bonus) in performance review, you need to be well-exposed to internal senior management staff. Performance is nothing related to the quality of actual deliverables / hardwork you have done to client in projects.
- Reporting line is unclear. Partners / directors can find you to work and I don't think there is room for negotiation for most of the cases. Because they will simply check on system to see if you are booked or not. However, sometimes your booking cannot be shown in system as project does not have enough budget. Therefore, you end up being "available" due to this reason.
