Exhaustive work culture, poor work ethics - DO NOT JOIN unless if you have better option

Pros

Despite the efforts to create a positive work environment, there are unfortunately no significant positives to highlight about this company.

Cons

The work culture is highly manipulative, with excessive work pressure that leaves no room for a personal life. Additionally, the compensation is disappointingly low.

Volatile work environment but good pay

Business outlook

Pros

1) Salary is credited on time. Extra pay for extra work in peak seasons. 2) Coworkers are helpful and good. 3) WFH facilities.

Cons

1) HR is unhelpful. Will say that they'll resolve your issues but won't do anything. 2) Sick leave policy is terrible. They make sick employees do WFH instead of giving them off days. They often turn sick leave into non paid leaves by some excuse to deduct salary. 3) No standardisation of writing process. Each team leader has their own rules of completing the same task. 4) Jobs are not allocated according to employee capabilities. They make employees with English degrees do medical jobs while employees with social science degrees are forced to do business/management jobs. 5) Promotions and increments are rare.
