Very spot on. I hate that,when on the last stage of the interview is when they revealed that the salary is 100% commission. Another information is the work require you to attend 6 days per week and they said the work hours are normal but usually,it is more than 8 hours. Fresh grads are usually who will take this bait. Mostly who works there are single.

Thanks guys for the heads up. Im a fresh grad and i almost got into the management trainee propaganda. Really loads of thanks on my part. Gogo malaysians!

I was "employed" by Centurion Marketing Group. At first I was "promised" stuffs and "certain" job functions only. When I started work, it was so different from what I was "promised"! The Centurion Marketing Group boss is also very bias. I joined that company with a dream but it was destroyed and I was given empty promises and lies!!!!! They said they practised "open communication" but all is BS!!!!! I complaint my dissatisfaction to APPCO GROUP but it was ignored!!!!! Avoid any companies associated with APPCO GROUP ..... including APPCO GROUP itself!!!!!!!!!! YOU'VE BEEN WARNED!!!!!!!!!! mad.gif mad.gif mad.gif

Nowadays a lot of employers like to conned people in. A lot of things they didn't stated in the offer letter. They said is stated in the employees handbook and you cant view the handbook till you join the company.

Hi guys, last week i received a call from this company called Maximum Pacific Sdn Bhd for an interview. So while googling, i came across this news report from Kosmo:

QUOTE
SHAH ALAM – Dua beradik yang juga Ketua Pegawai Eksekutif dan Ketua Pegawai Operasi sebuah syarikat pengiklanan dihadapkan ke Mahkamah Sesyen di sini hari ini atas tuduhan menipu seorang pemilik syarikat pembinaan, dua tahun lepas.

Ahmad Khusairi Othman, 40, dan Ahmad Nizam Othman, 43, mengaku tidak bersalah dan minta dibicarakan selepas pertuduhan dibacakan terhadap mereka di hadapan Hakim Asmadi Hussain.

Mereka didakwa bersama-sama menipu Noorun Nizam Marju, 33, pemilik syarikat Lingkaran Sutera untuk mempercayai bahawa syarikat mereka, Maximum Pacific Sdn Bhd boleh memberikan kerja membekal dan memasang 10 unit papan iklan tiga muka untuk tujuan pengiklanan dan promosi Pertubuhan Zakat Antarabangsa di lapangan terbang dan kawasan bandar kepada syarikat Lingkaran Sutera melalui ”Letter of Award” bertarikh 3 Julai 2009 sedangkan mereka tahu kerja itu tidak boleh diserahkan kepada mana-mana syarikat lain.

If you are worry about the company, then just reject the interview. No need think so much. A good company would not have many bad reviews. Since this has caused disturbance and affecting the ability to judge whether you should join, just reject.

IT freelance

Information
Recently I'm receive a freelance from an offline game retails shop freelance. After this I found out that a detail enough contract is very important for a freelance. They want to sue me because the contract or so call a price quotation is not details enough.

The incident is I prepare a quotation for the freelance like:

Front end
1. Payment Rm 500.00
2. Voucher Rm 500.00

...

Because of the quotation which I give to the client is not details enough, and that's no stated any source code which we will use to develop the website (Either write by own or using third party source code like OpenCart and so on), so problem occur after that.

Payment Received:/B]
Feb 2015, 3000 ++ (30%)
May 2015, 6000 ++ (50%)

[B]Things stated happen when


After both party agree on the payment and job scope, we started develop the website by using our own source code (started on Jan 2015), then when we almost finish the entire admin panel (on March 2015) client request to use a third party payment gateway because of the price is cheaper compare with other third party payment gateway. After discuss and talk with the payment gateway provider, they only allow those who use OpenCart to use their services, other than that they wouldn't provide the services to them even for those who write the cart system by themselves. We have to redo entire website by using OpenCart.

Beside this, for the payment part they are added in PayPal on top of the third party payment gateway, and they refuse to pay extra because they say it also part of payment.

The changing of payment history from

1. third part payment gateway ->
2. PayPal + third part payment gateway -> PayPal + third part payment gateway + offline banking ->
3. PayPal + third part payment gateway + offline banking (Multiple bank) ->
4. PayPal + third part payment gateway + offline banking (Multiple bank) + Self Pick in brunches ->
5. PayPal + third part payment gateway + offline banking (Multiple bank) + Self Pick in brunches + Different rate on different payment gateway ->
6. PayPal + third part payment gateway + offline banking (Multiple bank) + Self Pick in brunches + Different rate on different payment gateway + Member Point discount ->
7. PayPal + third part payment gateway + offline banking (Multiple bank) + Self Pick in brunches + Different rate on different payment gateway + Member Point discount(On certain member type only) ->
8. PayPal + third part payment gateway + offline banking (Multiple bank) + Self Pick in brunches + Different rate on different payment gateway + Member Point discount(On certain member type only) ->
9. PayPal + third part payment gateway + offline banking (Multiple bank) + Self Pick in brunches + Different rate on different payment gateway + Member Point discount(On certain member type only) + Voucher ->
10. PayPal + third part payment gateway + offline banking (Multiple bank) + Self Pick in brunches + Different rate on different payment gateway + Member Point discount(On certain member type only) + Different type of voucher ->

Changing so many time on a same part but they refuse to pay any extra money on it because they say it was still the same is under payment category. (this is only a single part of the rapid change functionality)

The changing of product synchronization history from
1. Use the general product summary report generate by their offline system.
2. Use the specify product summary report generate by their offline system (Row, column, header and so on is totally different from version 1).
3. Use the specify product summary report generate by their offline system included member point discount rate (Row, column, header and so on is totally different from version 2).
4. Use the specify product summary report generate by their offline system included member point discount rate and price different based on different member type (Row, column, header and so on is totally different from version 3).
5. Use the specify product summary report generate by their offline system included member point discount rate and price different based on different member type with different date format

Changing so many time on a same part but they refuse to pay any extra money on it because they say it was still the same is under product synchronize category. (this is another rapid change functionality)

From the beginning when we started develop the project, that's more than 1000 times changing on different part for the entire system, beside the functionality part, design also change for more than 20 times from not mobile responsive to mobile responsive, I spend around Rm 2000.00 ++ for plugins and theme for the website development. On Dec 2015 after I finish all bugs which requested to fix by them I email and sms the person in charge of the website we will stop support on Jan 31, 2016 (Total received payment is Rm 10,000.00 ++, totally didn't have extra payment and plugins and theme is paid by me). That's no news from them at all from Dec 2015 to Feb 2016, on March out of sudden they request to change on certain functionality and design again, and I refuse to change for them. End up they requested the source code and database for the entire system (which I already setup for them in their server completely), after they get the source code and database they say the system is not what they want they plan to hire another developer to start all over again, and request us to return 80% out of total received payment of else they will sue us for the lose in earning and fail to deliver the website.

Contract is important for freelancer too, for those who are freelancer prepare the contract detail enough to avoid from this kind of shit.
Yes I knew that I'm stupid and brainless, and I will return the Rm 8000 ++ (80% out of total received payment) to them.
I'm posting this no blame anyone but just to let others aware about the important of a contract which details enough.

If it has anything to do with gold trading, only banks and goldsmiths are legally allowed. Many things happened online since I knew of people engaging in forex trading, commodities etc. It is very risky, to say the least.

If you go for a first interview, they'll surely reveal that they're associated with APPCO GROUP. If you attended the first interview and found out they're associated with APPCO GROUP, then just forget it and don't waste your time with them. It's better for you to work with other proper company or even with McDonald's coz I truly advise anyone from joining any companies associated with APPCO GROUP. They'll advertise glamorous positions in Jobstreeet and mostly of them will advertise a lot in mudah.my but the job will be very different from what they advertised and whatever they promised to you in the interview. Those companies are COMMISSION BASED ONLY and NO BASIC SALARY ..... NO SALES THEN NO MONEY!!! JOIN THOSE COMPANIES AT YOUR OWN RISK COZ YOU HAVE MORE TO LOSE THAN GAIN!!! WARN YOUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS ABOUT APPCO GROUP AND IT'S COMPANIES BEFORE THEY FALL INTO THE TRAP!!!
