I actually applied this job bcoz I am thinking that since it is a IT support centre that support almoz half the world, I would hav better chance to get expose to more new technologies... more programming skills... more mainframe... or.... jz more lar...
As a fresh graduate, I am offered rm2k, they said it is standard for all freshie in their company... is it ok in this industry for a newbie?... But I know anyther company that offer rm2200, but the company is smaller ( i think so ), i m worried that in the future, I will get limited to a few skills only... Does my thinking make sense?... |

How about this, get inside and try out the environment first. You can cabut 24 hour b4 you sign that confirm letter which lock you for 2 yrs contract.
At least you have something great to write in your resume for your next job if you dont like the current one. "Oh man, I worked in scope International, subsidiary of StardardCharted !" |

QUOTE(Akimoto Shun @ Dec 8 2006, 11:23 PM) mIssfROGY, u worked b4 in scope@pj? Better make up your mind before signing 2 years contract. Some of my friends say its a living nightmare in there. Come to work at 9am, leave at 8pm, do offsite support from 10pm to 6am, and go to work again at 9am. I really kesian see my friend like that.. work so much until he sick. Worst of all, he's tied for two years. Also remember you will be servicing other countries and they expect results and response. No Malaysian attitude "today apa", "tomolo do lah", "sien lar" kind of attitude. They will tembak you kaw kaw if they see this attitude. but this job come wif a 2 year contract... jz hope to consider properly and not to regret afterward... Depends lar, if young and heavy duty no problem, a very good place to pick up knowledge. But if you hope to go back before 7pm everyday, look somewhere else. |

Prospect according to my mates is very very very good. But prepare to work your ass off and absorb knowledge like a sponge, else they will hand your ass back to you. According to them, some depts are even more hardcode and gila than citibank.. so you get the picture lar..

Hmm, I thought the Crystal Plaza place was ISCM only? o.o
You didn't really give specifics so i'm assuming you got offered a job with IT365? That company is basically just tech support. ISCM is more for systems development and programming. Anyway if ISCM I'd say go, IT365 I'd say don't go. Call centre is =_=; and you don't learn anything useful. I mean ... you'd learn how to trouble shoot a bunch of proprietary systems that are used in Stanchart and nowhere else ... and 2 year contract? zzzzzz. On the other hand, the PJ office got quite a lot of hot chinese chicks  |

I work in the TPM office, in banking ops, so I really wouldn't know how good/bad the working conditions are over in the PJ side (which is purely IT).
"Horrible" is pretty relative, though ... I mean, I work 10-11hours a day, which seems horrible, but then I also have friends in CIMB and E&Y who have lunch AND dinner at the office every day ... |

Looks like you'll be situated in Menara Axis, got some friends in there, some in support, some in project development. For support it should be a very nice job as unlike development you dont have a deadline, but from time to time you'll need to be on call. But since you're a fresh grad, I doubt they expect you to fix all problems, most likely as a first level support and forward more complex problems to seniors or to the developers. Scope as a company has a lot of benefits compared to other sdn bhd out there since its actually part of stan chart bank, you'll get all the employee benefits as well like lower loan rates. Your probability of getting bonus is good as well unlike a lot of chinamen companies. I'd say its a good place to learn and network for a fresh grad.

I ask 5 of my friends there, 100% will agree. During support, you are basically Rambo at night. If the program KO, and you make mistake, it will cost the bank alot of $$$$. Also the next day when they do post mortem, you will be in spotlight. According to them, they always ask who is interested to do support, almost everyone will start running away. He also very kesian, cos he doing support, user always will call support and hentam kaw kaw... |

I dunno, maybe it's cos I worked 3 year part-time while studying as Unix helpdesk ... made me totally and utterly hate anything to do with customer support/helpdesk/etc. But in support, if you solve a problem, most likely you will not get any glory because the nature of the work is a problem to be solved... I've seen before, although development sometimes got deadline, support also got deadline to solve a problem. But in development you have a team to back you up, support you need to be more independant. |

Sounds totally different then what my friend is telling me, she's supporting their internet/mobile banking application and most of the time she doesnt have anyting much to do. They rotate on call according to her. Any serious problems that she cannot fix she will forward to the developers/vendors and she is not even a fresh grad but an intermediate level. By the way, this is software support, not technical/hardware/system support. 2 very different things. Perhaps the poster should enlighten us on which type of support he/she is actually interviewing. |

i was in scope as a graduate trainee too.
what deodorant said is reli true. forget about IT365. If ISCM still can consider. last time i was doin develpment and support at the same time. need to meet deadline for releases and also need to solve prod issue at the same time. If you are doing support, you will definitely gett call in the early hours. Prepare to cancel your weekend outing when u r on support. Environment-wise is good though and the ppl there are friendly. might as well join them for 6mnth. Then only make up your mind after u have a clear picture of wat u r getting into.

I am ex-IT365.
To the OP, take up the offer at ISCM. It will do u a lot of good, not just for yourself but for your resume too. BTW, yes ISCM does has a decent number of nice chics. Quite decent considering it's a pure IT environment. So take that as a bonus if you get extra motivation from that. |

Online internet banking is i-Banking....that's all there is.
I know there were some new projects coming in for that...6 months back. Job wise?...normal...crunch time mostly. It's banking lah.... stress level?...no stress on me...doesn't bother me...then again, I quit already.... ppl in the team?...some good some bad....who knows?..changes all the time. ISCM - International Standard Chartered MAlaysia.?ahhaahha.... shell script?...it's IBM's AIX...if you don't have scripting background, it's gonna be tough. It's just any other software language in UNIX level. You're gonna need more SQL skills than shell most of the time..... This is mid-range projects.... Mainframes are COBOLs...haahahah....you get to meet... hulk "Hogan"!. I want to poison all the fish in the stupid aquarium tanks there.... Eh,...some of the chics leng lui mah.....but i know mostly are pregnant womens around these days... haahahah.... IT-365?...yeah, i make a lot of calls there...becoz my stupid PC always lock up for no reason!....but nice people...at least I don't need to scream...just open ticket.

SCB uses Websense for their internet blocking. Most sites are ok, they only really block webmail, porn, games, friendster-type sites and fileplanet-type sites. Sports and all that normally ok.

Is it hard to even get an interview from Scope?
I've applied back 2 months ago with my insider friend helping me to forward it to HR department. I have near 3 years of programming working experience with me, but what i've mastered are not languages used by mainstream IT companies around.... I'm not sure whether i should give it another try since i saw SCOPE is mass hiring right now again...Should i keep knocking the door? This post has been edited by guybrush: Jul 8 2007, 11:31 PM |

Fren,...not to pour cold water lah huh.... IDE programming is fast and simple to pickup...I agree, but not pure language like shell , C ,Cobol or SAS. In addition, if I threw one of the above defects for you to fix, you think you can manage it using Clearcase environment?. In case SAS is new to you...... http://www.sas.com/ Well, if they are hiring Visual Basic or C-Builder or J-builder ah....ok lah..I think you can quickly get the hang of it in 1-2 months time. I think you might also agree with me....creating and developing your own codes is more simple than reading existing codes,especially if it's poorly documented as well. Anyway, wish you the best. |

@guybrush:
Not really a disadvantage for you mate. Delphi is greatly use in many outstanding application these days, even on Linux..eg: Kylix, which I assume you know. It's just that Delphi is not widely used in Malaysia. I'm also a Delphi user. In your case, I guess, if you relatively have no working experience in .NET, I suppose they would consider you a "fresh", but it's a question IF you really do want to learn some new for FREE and gain the work experience as well. But, if it's all about the pay....then you should probably look at a different career window. Just be wise in planning the path. @Thinkertoy: Not really sure the position you are being interviewed on...so I don't know how to give my opinion here. Scope is basically a very aggressive IT banking environment. Major revenues basically churns from offshore Hong Kong and Singapore. Most of the projects are demanding. If you haven't worked in an IT banking environment, then,...the "demanding" here is both communication and experience wise. The room for learning is quite small, and most of the work are challenging. Managers differ. They are those that you might normally meet in a chinese-cultured working environment. They like to live up to their "pasar malam" slogan: "Faster, Cheaper and Better". When I got hired, they just went for my skills. They already needed me badly for the project, and I was in need to get out from my prev company....so, the screening wasn't much except for my skills. Pay wise is totally different. Usually, they play the hard to get,...probably need some good negotiation skill....which I lack, and they got me cheap and good. There are alot of monthly events going on internally in each department. If you are the interactive sort...well, you will get adjusted quickly. Doing work with the banking people are also a good exposure, in both meeting them and talking on the phone with them. I suppose the question here again is....when you are being interviewed by them...., ask yourself...DO you really want to work with him/her?. So, you gotta know their expectations....If they are the sort that are tolerable for room in improvement, whether in career, interest, personal growth...then, why not?. |

Am I still qualified for the trainee post? Pity this kind of chance didn't bloom out that time during my time finding job back few years ago.

jz share my exp:-
before i entered scope, 1. job offer from ex-coll - RM 3K for R&D department 2. job offer from MNC company for Java programmer - RM 3K. 3. job offer from local company as AP - RM 2.5k 4. If i continue my freelance job, I got RM 700~1500 for every week. after think & think & think...& compare & compare & compare.. I took risk n joined Scope ...& my salary is 30%~50% lower.. maybe u will think i m dumb * stupid. Noone will satisfy for their current salary.. bcos more $$ more spend.. However, feel under pay after 1. got job offer from oversea company - S$3.5K 2. got job offer from local companies - RM 3.2~ 4K 3. i can join any of the previous companies', which gave offer before joined scope... & pay will be more than offered at that time. what to do.. can't chao bcos of 2 yrs born.. i can't deny that scope was a good company... good ppl, good working environment....bla bla bla.. But, the increment is really low n out of our expectation... dun know why... maybe i m greddy or what.. I took my risk at 1st place.. r u ? *what u gain at one side = what u loss at another side. *ISCM is stand for International Software Center Malaysia.. It is not International Stan Chart Malaysia. |

@guybrush:
if you have working experience, why join graduate trainee????... I doubt they should offer you that, as it does not compliment you salary, unless you telling me you earn less than 2k. work late?...YES, most projects require working late...and YES, Scope pay peanuts increment.... Money is distributed to mostly Mainframe people..... @Hean: For my project....yes. Most of the time, I do not have the skillset to start my project. And if you are in a project already, most of the time, you are "putting out fire". You work like a robot, while some manager give crap suggestion and make you do it eventhough you tell them it's a stupid idea. There is no awards/encouragement given to being innovative or making things easier and better. Again, I may contradict my earlier statement by telling you... for some parts of my project I did learn something, but that's only because I know these from my previous working experience that now I know it cannot be applied here and there. What I'm probably nailing are new skillsets. |

Saw on jobstreet ad by the Advertiser: Excellent remuneration package with bonuses 3-6 months , housing loan ,full medical coverage, trainings and other benefits await the selected candidates A good opportunity to be in the JAVA development environment and to participate in new technologies functions & breakthrough. Convenient location near LRT station in Petaling Jaya, More than 20 openings available. Could this be Scope? |

COBOL?...mainframe...called Hogan.
You need to ask yourself if you want to make a future living with COBOL?. I'm not sure if it's development, testing, management, biz analysis... Hogan for one...is very proprietry, so, you learn nothing much but banking transactions, and remember all those shortcut commands navigating that DOS-like menu. Nothing much that I learnt...except soft skills...talking to people and how to "encourage" people to give you information.. Travelling short term was modest during my time, Hong Kong, Singapore, Indonesia...but, it all depends on your project. I just know the allowance is good for Hong Kong and Singapore.... |

anyway..want to ask about the..school of trade program at scope in TPM.. something to do with document analyst..export import documentation and all.. anyone working in that department or anything? coz thinking of going there because got the offer.. how's the working environment? the people? the working hours? benefits? salary? and other worth mentioning things? i think it's under the banking operation..not the ICT one... i'll be based in TPM.. any infos or anything at all relating to Scope at TPM will be valuable for me..coz got around 1 more month to decide whether to work there or not.. thanx guys! |

For the service consultant for scope international in TPM,
I had been in the training as a Part time Service Consultant. I haven't finished the training cuz i was expelled from the training. I took 2 days MC cuz i was really sick and they told me I never get enough basic and asked me to rejoin next batch. So i had nothing to argue and stepped back from it. From what i had been told, there IS NO benefit at all for service consultant. No load, no medical, and the allowance only given to the midnight shift which is 12am-8pm, RM300-400 a month. They actually offered RM12 per hour being part time service consultant but one of my fren worked there for 4 months said recently that they didn't really pay that much now. I need to reconsider whether i am going back joining the next batch. U might think i am leaking some internal info, um i guess i am not wrong.. for the information below as my conclusion of my message. Bad things: -No loan -No medical -Basically no benefit -Bully part timers, pay less (I have counted for my fren, average is RM6.8/hrs than paying RM12/hrs) -Full timer salary RM1800 (no matter what level r u in, a degree holder also starts with this amount of salary. Unless u r someone special...) Good thing is: -the name card/tag u're hanging can access to any department in the TPM as long as they are all under scope international - StandardChartered Bank |

Scope is a private company ... providing services to SCB ... so not belong to Banking Industry ... therefore benefits could not compare with local Bank here

To be more accurate, Scope is a subsidiary of StanChart but not classified as a Bank (i.e., you don't get the union coverage, you don't get any of the Bank Negara protection for Bank employees, and you don't get Bank benefits).
But otherwise ... well you get rm400/yr combined dental/optical, you get staff credit cards (basically same as outsider card except no annual fee), you get medical/hospital insurance coverage. Pay I suppose is only average (starting pay for fresh grad is 1.6k-2.0k), 18-21 days leave. Working hrs/working conditions is very dependant on what department you get into. |

I personally think this company is not that bad. Some how it's a "willing to pay" company. Can observe from their annual bonus, which can up to 6 months... normal rating with around 2 months(rating from 1 -5 ). Besides, this company has a very good potential to expand and you can learn a lot from there.
If you are thinking of pursuing your career in banking sector(IT), I think this is the right place. Unless you able to enter those HSBC or Citibank ... But this Scope is definitely better than any local bank in IT sector. So, from my point of view, you will not know how is the internal environment and the goods of a company unless you are really in there. This is very subjective as different department has different style and you dun like it not means others dun like it as well. Do not miss any opportunity by just seeing the so call 'verbally' passive site of the forumers here. This post has been edited by leefk: Apr 7 2008, 01:47 PM |

They've been so desperate lately, of which they call up everyday asking me to go for an interview. Unix (a little Oracle) position.
Ah, not sure how much they would offer. But I'm fairly not interested to join them. |

It has been 2 weeks, and they're still calling me up.
Nah, I'm not money driven...It's not always about money you see. Anyway, I'm pretty much comfortable at my current company and job. P/s: Yes. They did offer me good money. This post has been edited by c9: Apr 10 2008, 06:14 PM |

QUOTE(c9 @ Apr 10 2008, 07:13 PM) It has been 2 weeks, and they're still calling me up. Hahaha.. if not money driven, then what for you work? Just do whatever you like. Maybe people always said not to see on money but to gain more experience... but why need to gain more experience to be expertist ? That's only one reason behind, to get BETTER job, BETTER salary for more comfortable life in future. Thus, I am not believing such things as working for not money but for knowledge. Imagine that in future after you have your family, money is a must. Nah, I'm not money driven...It's not always about money you see. Anyway, I'm pretty much comfortable at my current company and job. P/s: Yes. They did offer me good money. If you knew how to jump, you will get a good salary increase as well as experience. But ofcourse not to ask you jump few jobs in a year, people will see you are not loyal to company. One more things, if you not yet work on others company, how can you say your current one is more comfortable? There are no perfect companies in the world, if yes, all people will just apply on that company. |

Well, you're right in a way, but I favor more towards comfort. And I've been working with few companies (MNCs and whatnot) already.
I didn't say that I won't jump nor my current company is the perfect company in the world. Yes, I do look forward to a greater opportunity, and yes it's all about money. Still, I earn better and I do have my own small company of which helps to keep me alive. This post has been edited by c9: Apr 11 2008, 01:43 AM |

You know, I went for interview in ISCM yesterday, i kinda agree to work there, but is waiting for the offer letter or something like that.
The only thing is, I forget about asking about benefits, so can anyone fill me in? p.s so i was kinda attracted by the mainframe and cobol(me a programming language buff, don't ask). But not really sure going to stay is banking IT. Looks like my weekends belongs to the more mainstream tech. |

Got vending machine, sell at very cheap price. Got coffee machine, free of charge. So far i feel quite ok with the environment. And for the bonus, how many you contribute, how much you wil get. |

I am in Scope.
Now, make it straight forward and easy: 1. Good and positive working environment 2. Hard bread (demanding) and of course rewarding 3. Good timelines, big pipelines 4. Good, competitive pay with great benefit too! 5. Sufficient training (to my own scale) If you are: 1. Lazy ass 2. 9-6pm boy 3. Expect spoon feed .....etc, etc... just give up before you join! |

from what i see, the human resource management is so sucks!! especially fresh graduate who would easily fall into the trap of joining production service support. and if you are very unlucky to join a team (probably newly setup team) which needs a lot of knowledge from the india colleagues, good luck to you. it's like malaysia and india fighting for project and they can boycott you anytime when you beg for help. i can see that something is not right in the company structure.
if you are experienced and manage to get a high position, the money is good. but for fresh graduate, the salary is higher than the market value but please think twice on the setback first. |

mate, with all due respect, human issue is not an issue being considered in working world.
so, look at it positively. if they can't gear the project or they can't learn and you managed to, it only proves that you are more capable. i am not on a high post. but i still think it will look nice in your resume if you worked in Scope before. but i have to agree with you that fresh grad. doesn't have much choice after the training. but please also remember there is a chance to discuss with your boss and ask for a move. Added on July 16, 2008, 3:59 pmJanice.Forever look at it this way. turnover is i believe should be evaluated with percentage% Scope is big, so if 1 month got 50 staffs resigned or transfer. Say Scope has 1.5k of staffs now. Say xxx company has 100 staffs now. Which one has a higher turnover rate? xxx company because 50% turnover rate. If I am not mistaken, one of the manager's KPI would be "retaining the staff or having low turnover rate in his/her dept" So, support them and you will get their support in return. Added on July 16, 2008, 4:01 pmcallmepaper, did you get any offer yet? from what I am seeing, is a healthy environment with sufficient amount of work for you to grow. so if you are capable, why worry? I mean you should have enough working experience and exposure for the PM post., so if I were you, the only thing I would worry would be pipelines. And for your information, the staffs here are quite competitive and cooperative. To me, its PM's heaven. cheers! This post has been edited by noelcantona7: Jul 16 2008, 04:01 PM |

My bro worked with SCOPE for 3.5 months, the problem with his job was that the working hours. He was required to work from 11am-8pm (very weird hours as they need to support middle east countries), nothing much to learn as he was in the support team. during the interview, they told him the working time is flexible, after donno how long, he would get the chance to learn programming, the pay was ok with no probation period. So he took the offer and got regretted after 2 weeks. So he tendered resignation letter and the immediate supervisor told him coz no probation period, he will need to serve for at least 3 months otherwise he will need to pay compensation. So no choice, the company made him seated at his desk doing nothing for 3 months
 . Thank god, he got an offer before he left the company.  |

Mate, i think to be fair I would ask:
1. Did your bro talk to his line mgr? If yes, how and how many times? 2. Did you bro stress that he is not comfortable with the time? there is indeed 8-5, 9-6, 10-7, 11-8 slots available. 3. Did he get a chance to learn programming? 4. Doing nothing is not good even he left 3 mths with the comp. (frankly, I join in and I am being aggressive, so I ask around for work and now I got a whole lot) If he really looking into dev. work he should be opened enough to discuss with line mgr, and HR. And time, again with line mgr. And if after talking and trying and really couldn't work. Its very fair for him to give up. Else is a waste of his time, the company's time and everyone's effort (including your bro) clngu said is a nice place, this is my 3rd company and i have to say is a positive place. so, keep us updated with your brother and the new company that he joined. glad to improve. |

Hi guys, I just begin working with Scope this week after near 3 month training at Shah Alam (under Grad Trainee) doing midrange. We're been assign under Internet Banking Mobile team. Unfortunately,me and my friends(Java trainee) were left alone at the back of the office(near pantry 2nd floor) waiting for the manager to give the briefing but until now just wait( 3 days )...HR has told us that this prob happen due to late inform to the manager
...and the brief, tour in the office will start next week... i dont know whether the manager always busy but at least just assign us in the team first, not rotten there while other staffs just glare us like we're like outlaw or smthing...we just want to be part of the Scope..huhu... One more thing...Whats the Internet Banking Mobile team do? One of us has assign to PICASSO team...whats PICASSO? Already ask people there but they don't know much about them...hope senioritas working in Scope can clarify it....

Erm, I have been working in ISCM (I afraid people confused between ITSC, SCOPE and ISCM) for 2 years in customer experience division and allow me to share experience working in this company:
1. Great exposure because you might be able to get in touch with people all around the world, built application that target different countries. 2. Annual leave is about 18D ~ 22D (or even more)..depend on your job grade; So AL + PH + sick leave, is around 30++ days. 3. For my division, we practice flexi working hour, meaning you can choose to work from 9AM, 10AM and 11AM, however this is still depend on which team, and whether your team manager offer this benefit. 4. Work from home is on the way deliver to us... 5. Relationship among colleagues is consider good; however, office politics cannot be avoided especially we are talking about a huge organization, matrix organization so you know the politic is multiplied lor. 6. Pay, pay is OK I think; but I think this is people to people basis...Bonus depend on your rating, rating 1->5, A->E, so if you are 1A, you are god like and bonus will be huge, and if you are 5E..hmm, take care. 7. Always struggle with budgeting issue and technology; but remember business come first, so if business say no budget, then your great idea (application) will be dropped...so don't get sad and relax...and this is the most important point people start complaining "Sux lar", "like this also can", and well, this is the fact. 8. Recommend not to join when you are first grad, salary increment is slow...however, join if you are in AP or SAP level maybe a better choice @@ Or another option is make sure you ask for more salary when you join the company... 9. Rollout an application need to follow a lot of processes, and a lot of processes come with A LOT of documents, and processes are always slow, take time and tedious most of the case..... 10. Location, LRT train, tons of food stalls around the office area (Menara LYL, Menara Axis, Crystal Plaza), PJ is definitely a better working location compare to KL lar...my personal opinion (compare to citibank..), Ah, forgot, Got aeroline some more.. Open car park is about RM5 ~ RM7/Day 11. Fitness First in Menara Axis, most people gain weight after join Scope, me too, 85KG -> 93.5KG... 12. Work pressure, well depend but I think still manageable. 13. Working hour, hmmm I think is ok, normally I work from 10AM ~ 7PM and most of the days I can leave office around 7 ~ 7.30PM except I have rollout which can only carry out after bank office hours. Overall, personally I think if you want me to give a rating (1-10) for this company I would say 7.5, as this is my 6th company I work in.. And also ask yourself if you are choosing a good company or a good boss.. Hope this help This post has been edited by honeynet: Oct 7 2008, 11:11 PM |

I've been with this StanChart group for almost 6 years and the worst i got for bonus was 2.5 months..erk where else you can find a place where the CEO is a party animal (ISCM) or can jamming together in the studio and on stage(IT-365) ??  |

i m being offered a position at scope as support engineer...unfortunately it is a contract one...
During the interview, the interviewer mentioned that the position is a permanent one, but now it ends up as contract...and with all the benefits being downsized..bonus pun takde...so shock to hear tht! i m tinking if it really worth dumping my permanent job (with lesser salary, small bonus, far from home, xpensive parking rate, but it's permanent) and jump over to this place? |

why dont you ask Scope why change to contract?
and why not ask if they can give you permanent if you lowered your asking? *dont talk abt lowering until they indicate so, or you cannot tahan. ask, you wont know what you will be getting..they are quite reasonable employer though.. |

yea...of course i got asked the lady on the phone (i guess she is jst a receptionist, mayb HR clerk), and she can only mention tht they have changed their employment policy to contract-based, for all the position offered. I even mentioned that the interviewer (given the interviewer's name) did said it is a permanent position (during my interview session), but she could only say they have jst recently changed, When i asked 'why'...she can't tell..only said it applies to all other positions as well...
in fact, she even checked with the interviewer, but as said...it has just 'CHANGED'. I expressed my dissappointment to the lady (who called) coz i really felt as if they r not 'sincere' in offering this job. If i m to be offered a permanent one, i can straight away agree with it ardi...now i hav to think twice! |

coz they are not financially stable due to current economic situation.
so, they are concern on the headcount. if contract, they can kill you off anytime they want! |

yea, definately the current economic situation does affect them. But wonder, if they r to offer contract-based jobs, is there really anyone who's willing jump over to have an 'insecure' contract job during recession?
well, unless tht person is jobless lar.. sad case. |

I talked to some of my x-mates in Std. Chart. Std. Chart. concentrates on Asia Pacific and yes they do pump some $ back and yes financial turmoil means everyone(all my ex-comp) kena at least 30% down share price...even HSBC. But are they throwing staff already? If not, just STFU and stop spreading negative "impression"? Others, Again, joining is a great experience and exposures because they have a great CMMI in place!! If they are hiring in contract, you can reconsider, but if permanent and labour law in Malaysia with attractive salary. Go ahead mate!! |

Well, i m abit skeptical on joining as a contract staff. I m putting hope to join in as to learn (as mch as i can) on midrange support, at least during that one-year contract, dun even mind of working night shift.
Pay is more or less the same. Skills tht i can obtain, hopefully more, especially when supporting banking applications. Heard that the team is just newly setup to provide support for some newly deployed applications. If things don't turn out well, they might get my contract ended after one year, during then i'l be jobless...unless the skills tht i get is useful enuff to join other banks. so much in dilema! |

To sum up all, again and again: Scope is popular. They are looking far ahead of other IT company. They have a good process in place. They are having a sustainable business and pipeline. Growing Individual? > it all boils down to yourself in every company. Again with Scope - equal opportunity |

Sending it to other bank? Why? IMHO, your agency is the one sending to other bank, this is because your agency get some $$ from your pay. For e.g.(not taking responsibility for this statement): Bank A pays Agency B 500 to hire garbage man. Agency B pays the garbage man 300. Lets sign the contract for 1 year. QUOTE(erica13) Can I know normally where do Scope employees park their cars ? ANy snatch thieves cases reported around there? I heard it's not that safe around the LRT area. Any advise or tips would be much appreciated. Ok, I am no longer with Scope but some of my mate told me they are still in the building. If I got it wrong, pardon me.If you work in : 1. Menara Axis/Crystal Plaza - Most of them take season car park opposite CP or the carpark behind Asia Jaya LRT (quite famous for car kena jack, waja/wira) 2. LYL - Most of them park near the makan stalls there / RM3 parking at the end opposite ISS or season park below LYL building or car jockey up there. Other alternative(risk/FOC): 1. Roadside (saman time = breakfast and lunch time) 2. Near the Hussein Onn eye hospital something, behind ARMADA hotel (need to walk quite a distance, risk kena rompak or car kena jack though throughout my 3 mths parking there it was all good.)

Thanks.

Bidding system, highest bidder will get the spot..On currect situation, you can forget about season parking.. |

I join IT365 since Sept 2008 as a centralised ops exec contract for 1 year... its not a support related job but i liased with the support team very much(Chennai India anyone?) I actually handle some daily application & systems during my shift which is 12 hours and on monthly period i only worked for 16 ~ 18 days only since its a shift based occupation. Pay is ok but the best part is the allowance that i got whch may about 40~60% of my current basic pay & it depends on how rajin i am. Workload is ok & during weekend its getting better since not much work during the weekend. Working enviroment is ok for me coz people at IT365 is very friendly and if im doing night shifts dress code doesnt apply(shorts, sandal).... bottomline is if ur a fresh grad n looking for good experience SCB is a good choice provided u got the balls n motivation to join the force.

Erica, No, I do not have any friends there who plan/giving up their season parking. What I suggest is, you be there early and park on ground floor/1st floor in LYL (jockey) which is RM5 a day. Else, reach there at 715am, and get a place near the makan area near LYL its FOC anyway! Early birds get the worm. |

Hi, I would like to share my first hand experience working under IT-365 Malaysia Sdn Bhd.
To be honest, I was a Service Banker with experience working for Alliance Bank as a Junior Executive for Credit Administration. Yet, the pay offered there was like crap! But since it was Customer service (Service Banker) I thought, well the responsibilities is lesser than Credit Admin, so I shouldn't be complaining. In addition, when you are in the interview they always say "Standard Chartered Bank" and NEVER MENTION ANYTHING ABOUT IT-365! I was shocked when I was given the offer letter and saw the "IT-365" there. The offer letter has to be picked up in TPM, and you know something really retarded about this company? They will promise you the world before you join, and once you are in... They will ask you back "Was it in Black and white?" I felt cheated when they said I would be based in LYL and there will be mileage claim if I am sent to TPM during weekends. (usually morning shifters) I worked there for the first 3 months, my god! I wouldn't expect Customer Service to be so .... different. Instead of helping people with their problems, it seems that they are more towards "answer the calls" and it's not a matter of number of solved cases. As long as you have the above 60 call numbers (Inbound) you are in the safe side. I was the worst! I never hit the 60 base line as it's entirely against my principle of "Responsive, and Trustworthy" This is entirely due to the fact that Customer's who call in trust us to help them in any issue regarding their banking needs and we have the responsibility to explain to them about our procedures, But not here in IT-365. All in all, great many who works there have really no where else to go. Some of my colleagues whom were the best people who I have ever met so far is only there because they haven't been offered a different position in other places. And some is just waiting to move to local SCB branch after 1 year of service. After the third month, I was given a letter to sign, stating that my Probation have been extended .... Can you imagine this? the reason, is because I haven't been hitting my target *60 calls* therefore, I am not PRODUCTIVE and COMMITED enough to be considered and confirmed. Let me tell you how my LIFE is there, I would reach office as early as 6.30 AM or 7 Am. Parking has always been free for me in LYL. I would log in to the system early, do my follow ups and than start work at 8 am - 4pm. Then I would have to listen to some "Debrief" session. which I find a total waste of time, when they could have just go straight to the point instead of wasting time walking around the garden. I would do my wrap up and go home as late as 10 or 11 pm. Can you imagine what time I go home when i'm in the Evening shift? In addition to this, the managers there are total retards who know nothing about Banking and financial act or maybe they are just stupid enough to believe they are actually working in a Bank. As they would threaten New joiners "We will make sure you will not get another job in any other Banks, if you leave our company." I'm just keeping my laughs to myself whenever I hear this coming of their mouth, as I would like to ask them "What Banking Act or amendment have I breached? and better you aren't even recognized as a Bank !" I've checked with Bank Negara and guess what? IT-365 isn't even govern by Bank Negara as a Financial institution nor is has any rights over banking and financial acts. (Except for money Laundering and Compliance) As such, I would say that for those SPM holders who has no other job offer, by all means go ahead and save money here as they pay highly to Managers with degree? I highly doubt so as they don't act like they deserve any respect. if you're a degree holder/master holder and wants to work as a Service banker, My advise to you is ... Congratz! you've just been wasting 5 years of University/college education working under a management who can't even appreciate commited staff. Do you know what they told me after all I have given to them??? "You're not showing any commitment" If I wasn't keeping my cool, I would have stood up and show him my middle finger and just walk away. |

my opinion, it's depend on what department, team, roles and country of the project they involved with. doesn't matter you are in ISCM or IT365. even with scope, those my friends who doing support really really complaint a lot! hehe.

Scope is managed fairly well, ICSM/ITSC and etc. but this IT-365 or more specifically virtual banking department has a very good Head of department, Mr. Franky.
However, because of the few bad apples who were given the "manager" title are the ones who screws everything up. Let me give you an exam given by one of the "Singaporean" Manager who has a BIG BELLY ... * I wonder when was the last time he has seen his toes? Ahem back to topic, he asked us ... "I eat the same food as you do, we drink the same water, and we even go to the same toilet, why is it that I remember more than you all do?" To be honest, I wanted to give him an answer straight in the face "Because you're a Singaporean, of course you know more about Singapore than us. And more importantly you have been doing this work like for 1 or 2 years? Doesn't take an Einstein to figure out that you can at least remember so much."

Of course, this guy mentioned that he "withdraw" from the society/school because he felt that everyone there were "Acting" to be smart.

However, the people from Virtual Banking Department truly deserves a pat in the back, and salute for working so hard and it's a pity that they aren't in a better company where their potential would have been more profound. I would only say that the Managers from Virtual banking Division ..... specifically a Service Manager who Back stabs his staff, talks cow and dung stories, and not to forget ... the arrogance of his ignorance. In the next post .. I would like to share with everyone how I lost my respect to IT-365 Malaysia S/B. Added on December 31, 2008, 10:59 pmCustomer Service, Is defined as a profession that provides solution to clients/customers who encounters difficulty in a purchased/paid product and service. Let me share an experience which made me realize, I wasn't with the RIGHT PARTNER... This is based on a true story I witness while seated beside on of the least appreciated Service Banker in the company One evening around 8pm in the Evening, a customer called in requesting help from SCB to Temp Increase his Credit Limit. When asked for what reason, the customer said that his Brother has been hospitalized due to an accident in a foreign country. Thus, request a temp limit increase for his Credit Card and would like to make an Online Purchase of an Airline Ticket. The Service Banker/ SB than walked up to the Duty Manager/DM for that evening and ask if there is any way he could help the Customer. The DM with the big belly from Singapore then told the SB that the only way for the Customer/ CM to have a temp limit increase was to fax in a receipt of the deposit that his card requires to purchase the ticket. However, Temp limit increase doesn't apply for ONLINE PURCHASE. Temp limit can only be used by SWIPING the card physically/manually. The SB walked backed to his seat, took a deep breathe and told the CM what the DM mentioned and that the only way for his Temp Limit to be approve if for him to Physically SWIPE the card to make a purchase. However, the airline only allows online purchase or through the phone. (Similar to Air Asia, except this is for Singapore). So, the CM again pleaded to the SB for help, and asked if the Phone purchase was applicable, the SB then goes back to the DM to ask if it can be done. the DM said "Why are you wasting time on this customer? I already said, it must be physically or manually. No online purchase is applicable." the SB ask "But phone purchase?" The Dm replied while showing a snobbish face "Do you UNDERSTAND what is Physically SWIPE ?" Feeling irritated by the DM's response, the SB told the CM to fax in the Deposit and SB took full responsibility and will ensure that the CM will get his purchase done through the Internet. The SB then called the Authorizers who then confirmed that ONLINE transaction can be done to purchase Airline Ticket, and only with the Evidence that a Deposit Receipt has been faxed over. Such a transaction is called "Purchase in lieu" apparently the MENSA DM from Singapore didn't know about such a thing, amazingly with his high Intelligence and Emotional Intelligence. So the SB did as the Authorizers advised and called the CM back at 10 pm (Yes, it took a whole 3 hours) And guess what happen? The CM managed to purchase the airline ticket THROUGH ONLINE and was able to visit his brother who was admitted in hospital. Morale of the story is, in customer service line... we must always uphold what we believe is right, and not what the managers think is right. Because the managers especially those with full of EGO and (MENSA drop out) would not want YOU to be better than him. this is just one story I have observed happen to my colleague, and many other times when a humble suggestion/opinion was shot down by this Fat Mensa Manager. Who in the end applied the ideas and suggestion given by the SBs and claim it as his own.

QUOTE(khenhh @ Dec 31 2008, 10:31 PM) Scope is managed fairly well, ICSM/ITSC and etc. but this IT-365 or more specifically virtual banking department has a very good Head of department, Mr. Franky. After reading your encounter on the least appreciated Service Banker, I give your friend a thumb up However, because of the few bad apples who were given the "manager" title are the ones who screws everything up. Let me give you an exam given by one of the "Singaporean" Manager who has a BIG BELLY ... * I wonder when was the last time he has seen his toes? Ahem back to topic, he asked us ... "I eat the same food as you do, we drink the same water, and we even go to the same toilet, why is it that I remember more than you all do?" To be honest, I wanted to give him an answer straight in the face "Because you're a Singaporean, of course you know more about Singapore than us. And more importantly you have been doing this work like for 1 or 2 years? Doesn't take an Einstein to figure out that you can at least remember so much." Of course, he then mentioned that he was also from MENSA .... one of the TOP youth communities in Singapore.

m working in CTF, the testing Team....
and so far so good. Due to many documents, ppl, processes involved in a project. Getting a small things done, have to ask multiple ppl, raise RMS (Request) whereby some time takes 2-5 days just to give a permission, to complete a task. Parking is sucks here....if come late, and you are in no luck. You wont get a parking @ the open car park (infront of CP or near food stalls). Forcing you to park roadside, or, in basement parking.... (first day join, i have to spend RM25 in LYL's basement parking). Now, i came 730am, just to get a free parking infront of makan area. Reports........ thats the one delaying me from going back home on time... crap... have to consolidate all the team member's report.... and have to sent on that day. Of coz, this only happen during SIT and UAT stage. Applying leave...is slow. Have to ask..ask...ask.... Line manager multiple times... then only can approve... if reject...also last minutes... damn. If you are fresh grad, well, you have to eat yourself as no one will actually teach you if you dont ask. Until today, i still have not being guided on company processes.... and i have to dig it myself. This post has been edited by weretiger: Jan 2 2009, 04:52 PM |

Until today, i still have not being guided on company processes.... and i have to dig it myself. argh ... i hate reports too ... how many ppl actually read the report ....... somehow, i just felt that ctf emphasize more on paper work rather than the actual testing. i can say more than 70% of the time we are preparing documents, from test plan, test strategies, kick off slides, daily reports, final reports, test cases to writing emails and so on. many times when i walked pass my team mate sitting in front of me, i can see her preparing a report ... arugh and the best thing is, the documents are copy from one to another, from the brd to fsd to test plan to test strategy to final report ... hahahaha ... u can see unedited paragraphs appearing in those documents ... of course with enhancement in certain portion ... so wat's the point of having so many pieces of docs? well ... talking about leave, for those for intend to take leave or must take leave to go holiday or so on during dec, please dont join ctf. it's a rules from the big boss of ctf that no block leave or no long holiday at dec. y? bcos boss said must hav 50% attendance during holiday season. the 50% attendance are test engineers and another 50% who go on leave are higher rank ppl and of course ... the big boss himself. and guess wat, the boss said ... dont book ur air ticket & hotel prior getting approval from your line manager ... wtf ... be it fresh grad or not fresh grad, but if u do not hav any background in banking system, it's kinda suffer for u. as weretiger said, no one will guide u thru the company processes and the worst is their systems have quite a lot of different applications or interfaces. until today, i still cannot get the whole picture of how the flow is. and yes, i do approach my lead for guidance, but i can tell u me lead sucks, she knows nothing, i dare to say that i now hav a better knowledge in the system than my lead does who hav been with the company for more than 3 years. there are times that i'm the one giving her information on how the system actually works overall, resource management sucks, a proper walkthru for every new staffs should be given rather than asking us to complete all the crappy e-learning courses.

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « The doc have its own purpose (e.g. CMMI), but a process that abuses to have many docs tend to create a lot of useless document which nobody reads. Therefore, everyday is purely creating doc with fake content. Since CTF is a testing team, then why on earth it requires 50% attendance? Isn't it that it depends on number of on-going projects that require test verification? [Don't' make sense] Its normal that newbies to a company is not guided properly .... and welcome to the real world, most lead know nothing.... hahahaha ... Seems MC and EL is abused in the company.... Btw, does MC and EL contribute anything to performance review? |

My friends who worked there as DC already given notice termination yesterday by the management, not only DC, AC also been told to leave (terminate). Its a major layoff for contract staff in Scope.
What I heard from my friend that there's less project been given this year, so there's not enough money to pay the staff salary. I dunno about the perm staff, but I would say they might well be retrentch soon based on performance. Its kinda cruel because my friends enrolled as Graduate Trainee, but been layoff less than a year. So how to find jobs with little experience gained? So stupid this Scope. |

LOL I got sick and tired of the company not because of the HoD, but the Retards who calls them self Managers, not only they don't try to understand you, they make you feel worst! My car broke down, Twice in a single day and I tried my best to go to work, and this Manager was in office or god knows where kept calling me to ask when i'm going to work. HELLO ... instead of offering me a hand, to come to my rescue, you are asking me STUPID question like when I'll go to work ... Shit, what's a bloody ROSTER for then? might as well throw it away or stuff it up his Arse. when i was IN alliance Bank, my car broke down, not only my Vice President told me not to go to work, she even paid for my bills! How could you not respect this kind of Boss? Compared to this ... *Manyzer* who pressures you at the wrong time and using the wrong words. sorry, when i think back of what happen and the hardship i had to go through ... I realize I'm a bigger man today. I realized, I have better leadership skills, people skills, and most importantly I know how to manage people compared to this drunken monkeys who call themselves Managers. What a Joke! My name is pretty obvious here, so if the managers were reading this .. they might know who i am, but let me tell you this, I'm not a Back stabber and if you have an issue with me, come talk to me 1 on 1 like a man. Anyway, under the leadership of Mr. Franky IT 365 is slowly transforming , unlike Mr Alan and his Gang who doesn't know how to lead, I'm pretty much tired of this company.

QUOTE(Dead4Life @ Mar 13 2009, 11:32 AM) My friends who worked there as DC already given notice termination yesterday by the management, not only DC, AC also been told to leave (terminate). Its a major layoff for contract staff in Scope. Perm still stay the same, but no more increment this year unless u are superb (to me team superb is can tahan work 7*24, aka ROBOT / Machine / Terminator) .....What I heard from my friend that there's less project been given this year, so there's not enough money to pay the staff salary. I dunno about the perm staff, but I would say they might well be retrentch soon based on performance. Its kinda cruel because my friends enrolled as Graduate Trainee, but been layoff less than a year. So how to find jobs with little experience gained? So stupid this Scope. Bonus..... cold then water.... (in some team, u didnt work for 1 year.. u will never get any so called pro rated bonus[ur grade will be very low].. its either got or no niah) in t process of cabuting.....

my contract is 6 month
In my contract state like this: "This contract may be terminated by either party giving to the other one (1) month written notice of termination or one (1) month basic salary in lieu of such notice" SO i think just need give one month notice and no need any compensation. Then i think 1800 (basic) + 500 (contract allowance) is every month one. So total 2300. This is wat I rasa la..haha |

Scope doesn't have any customer service or sales or any frontline jobs, it's all either (1) banking operations (i.e. backroom), (2) IT helpdesk, or (3) programming/project.

QUOTE(khenhh @ Apr 9 2009, 10:12 PM) Basically they are a subsidized agent for SCBMB ... the position they offered you is a Collection officer i tell u all.. even HR act like inspector !!!!! scary right? can get commision NO recovery you get screwed.Added on April 9, 2009, 10:34 pm imagine, you come in straight as a Manager with no leadership skills what so ever, you fail to motivate your staff to work for you, they leave one by one and you are losing your team. Yet you dare call yourself a Manager? Shit, i've seen beggars leading larger group of Hobos then this so called manager. I got sick and tired of the company not because of the HoD, but the Retards who calls them self Managers, not only they don't try to understand you, they make you feel worst! My car broke down, Twice in a single day and I tried my best to go to work, and this Manager was in office or god knows where kept calling me to ask when i'm going to work. HELLO ... instead of offering me a hand, to come to my rescue, you are asking me STUPID question like when I'll go to work ... Shit, what's a bloody ROSTER for then? might as well throw it away or stuff it up his Arse. when i was IN alliance Bank, my car broke down, not only my Vice President told me not to go to work, she even paid for my bills! How could you not respect this kind of Boss? Compared to this ... *Manyzer* who pressures you at the wrong time and using the wrong words. sorry, when i think back of what happen and the hardship i had to go through ... I realize I'm a bigger man today. I realized, I have better leadership skills, people skills, and most importantly I know how to manage people compared to this drunken monkeys who call themselves Managers. What a Joke! My name is pretty obvious here, so if the managers were reading this .. they might know who i am, but let me tell you this, I'm not a Back stabber and if you have an issue with me, come talk to me 1 on 1 like a man. Anyway, under the leadership of Mr. Franky IT 365 is slowly transforming , unlike Mr Alan and his Gang who doesn't know how to lead, I'm pretty much tired of this company. |

QUOTE(shk312 @ Jun 28 2009, 10:49 PM) Thanks for ur reply, deodorant... Hi There, my hubby was from this company before. He was among the pioneer in his department. Ur working hour will also based on country that you support. Working environment??? May be suitable for those who not yet married, coz you really work like hell there!! Any comment for this department?? hehe, from previous post seems majority in negative sights... anyone work in this department b4? appreciate if u can share here Will it base in bukit jalil or PJ? One good things that motivated him to work there was because of the salary that the company offerred him.. MOre than 3.5K for those who has only 1.5 years experience in local bank, i think it is worth enough. The turn over also very high there coz people cannot stand with the preasure at that place... some department have very bad political environment... some may be ok la... however, it is also depends on the manager that managed the deprtment But unfortunately right now as what we heard from our frenz, Scope offer less than 2K... emmm!! Not enteresting at all.. |

haih... already 1 week plus 5 days already...
I still dun get any reply from them regarding my application as global operation officer as mortgage loan processing . I already called jobstreet select last thursday about my status ... But the girl told me that they are still in the midst of calling the qualified candidates... I wonder whether i flunk the interview on 1st of July , although i think I'm present myself quite ok ( of course not so good) , by the way , I'm frustrated job seekers (fresh graduate) that jobless for 2 months ! |

Can i ask whether there is contract allowance for global operation officer which is rm 500? Since during the interview, the interviewer told me that there is no bonus or allowance as this is a contract-based job ? But some forumer here do mention that there is an exist of allowance ...
Very blur coz jobstreet called me just now that scope international going to hire me and might call me up within this few days ! |

I think for Cntract GOO you will get the RM500 allowance. This is wht my friend told me... Very blur coz jobstreet called me just now that scope international going to hire me and might call me up within this few days ! Anyway, Scope is a good place for freshie to start their work life in banking environment. eventhough the envorinment here is really sucks, you will gain good banking knowledge&products and i can promise that you will be demanded by other banking after 1-2years you working there. Don't belief me... try la... after 2 years plse try to send ur resume to other local bank, guarantee they will hire you... That has happen to my hubby before... He left 3 years already from scope... and now he become like "pisang goreng", coz other banks keep calling him to offer a job... |

2day went to collect the offer letter. on last wed, the person in charge called me, asked me if based me at PJ ok or not. I replied her ok, i was thinking, why change me to PJ since the interviewers told me that mortgage processing is mainly based at tpm..
In my contract, stated tehre - acct services. change me to acct services..I accept already as the location is near to my house. as from previous post, ppl said acct services mostly is banking operation.. i don wan customer serives or sales as well...... |

I'd imagine Mgmt would be eager to have a (relatively) large portion of you guys on contract vs permanent, especially in ISCM where no funding from business = no projects = no job. Much easier to terminate contract staff than permanent ones

Please don't believe SCOPE. They are cheating people to work as cheap labor. Especially new joiner, or experience lesser worker, they promise to give you to work as Java Developer. In the end, they will asking you to do support task, saying you need 1 year to go into Developer. as my friend faced so, then after 1 year......they said u r already as support, you cannot work as developer.......come on...............dilemma.
Also heard internal staffs said that the bonus have "kuota".......after certain people get good, you cannot get the good 1......wtf... then must be someone become scapegoat even though work hard!!? i can't believe it. Last but not least,....my sister friend also join as GT (graduate trainee). there is a bond.......15k, they use this a secret power to force u work something you don't like....... after hearing a lot of negative comment... pls........don't join,.......so politic.....so bullying.....cheating... luckily i not yet join.........pls intro me work? 5 years exp....

Nowadays economy not so good, Scope also cut cost I guess. Nowadays looks like got more contract position than permanent. If got better offer, better don't join and work as contract staff, no job security and wasting time.

I just abit confused. because during interview, he dint mention about contract allowances, therefore i thought the highest pay is RM2k. If 2k + 500 for allowance, i thought is very good dy.

QUOTE(scopesux @ Aug 7 2009, 05:10 PM) Please don't believe SCOPE. They are cheating people to work as cheap labor. Especially new joiner, or experience lesser worker, they promise to give you to work as Java Developer. In the end, they will asking you to do support task, saying you need 1 year to go into Developer. as my friend faced so, then after 1 year......they said u r already as support, you cannot work as developer.......come on...............dilemma. COMPLETELY AGREED WITH YOU..Also heard internal staffs said that the bonus have "kuota".......after certain people get good, you cannot get the good 1......wtf... then must be someone become scapegoat even though work hard!!? i can't believe it. Last but not least,....my sister friend also join as GT (graduate trainee). there is a bond.......15k, they use this a secret power to force u work something you don't like....... after hearing a lot of negative comment... pls........don't join,.......so politic.....so bullying.....cheating... luckily i not yet join.........pls intro me work? 5 years exp.... DBA. I used to work with SCOPE for almost 3 years, I quitted recently... No counter offer, and more importantly what manager promised "you will definitely put in high priority when come to promotion, performance review next round" is all lie, don't ever believe unless your HR manger issue a letter for you saying you will get increment, promotion, blah blah. I asked my manager to issue the letter and he said "I am not going to do that.."..haha.. And for the case you said, yes, my ex colleague was suffering, and exactly the same reason, she was transferred to another team, and also promised by the manager that she will be doing development work, but end up doing support because "You have to familiar with the system first".. Last but not the least, a lot of incapable project manager is in that company, be careful.. politics also quite worse.. This post has been edited by honeynet: Aug 28 2009, 02:12 AM |

honeynet...i understand how you feel....i believe we will know each other as we are from the same division...
i also in the same boat with you.... i am doing much more higher work but my level and pay is still the lowest of all... thus making me very pissed off... even my dept a lady very clear in tai chi and polishing shoe... big bosses work all she do... then i do the stuff, she just change the format a bit, then she get all the praises... even now puasa time, come to work at 10 am plus and leave at 430...saying need to go back buka puasa.... but why other malay i see in the office still stay back and go to the cafe downstairs to buka puasa... . and always any blames can be pushed to me...i really pissed off yesterday and i shouted at her... she suppose to prepare some documents for me, last min clever enough to push the things to me... |

Hi all. I am 101% agree with humanfly and honeynet. Like i said before, get a better and secure job some where else. If you are in for the money then so be it. If you thinking can be permanent staff and enjoy increment, bonus and etc forget about it. I even don't get my increment for working more than 3 years despite the my line manager kept saying fight for me but cannot obtain approval for my increment.
Scope is only a good place for those big fishes and senior management people. Actually for GOO position, things are very logic, why they kept advertising for vacancies available. Hmmm, think and you will know why. |

Actually for GOO position, Hmm as far as I know all processing staff in the Ops side have gotten increments every year for the past 4-5 years (at least). If you're in Ops and you were one of the processors, the only reason I can think of for you not getting increment is under-performance. If tech side no comment, no idea how you guys operate, but I do know that the tech side gets paid a LOT more than Ops side in the first place Anyway Scope isn't that bad. It's just inconsistent. If you're lucky you get into a good department under a good manager; then life will be good. If you're unlucky you get into a sh*t position with a worthless manager, and ... well ... you can see the outcome from the previous few guys' posts |

Yeah well, I believe I got a bad manager and I do not think I am under perform.
I agree with you that it is true that some times it is not the company but your direct and immediate superior that brings you a bad and tough life working at Scope. Anyway, a good job not only need hard working but also luck and appreciation from your immediate superior. |

the company is merging 2 entities... Scope and IT365 under one roof...
Company is good... but if how good your manager is but you did not perform how are they going to promote you.... i know of some people good at polishing shoes... |

QUOTE(deodorant @ Aug 30 2009, 05:00 PM) Hmm as far as I know all processing staff in the Ops side have gotten increments every year for the past 4-5 years (at least). If you're in Ops and you were one of the processors, the only reason I can think of for you not getting increment is under-performance. tech side no comment? If tech side no comment, no idea how you guys operate, but I do know that the tech side gets paid a LOT more than Ops side in the first place Anyway Scope isn't that bad. It's just inconsistent. If you're lucky you get into a good department under a good manager; then life will be good. If you're unlucky you get into a sh*t position with a worthless manager, and ... well ... you can see the outcome from the previous few guys' posts blabooooh....... even worst from tech side until no one even wanna comment... tired of it already..... ohyah... i from tech side... left quite some times already..... wat benefits u wanna from tech side? there got.... - promotion without increment - after promo then bonus evaluate based on ur new position timeline (start from oct evaluate, in front hard work is all clear off) - fix bugs ONLY which created by them - u dunno wat they are doing.. explore urself or die..

And wow, calling names & using swear words is SO MATURE! oooo.... i dunno traxe goes in US already..... when i come out only know until UK....One word: Trade. Now SHOO, and go find out for yourself whether I'm right or wrong. as far as i know... SCB super very less in US... 1 hand can count finish....

Anybody is in Standard Chartered? How is the group performing (as in the bonus, increment and promotion)? How's the benefit? I'm being invited to an interview in the Standard Chartered HQ.

actually scope is quite nice company, it provides above-market value of salary and lots of additional benefits such as insurance coverage for u & ur immediate family (children, wife), dental, optical and long annual leaves. every company also has its own issues, as long as you are happy with the offer, then just join. no need to care about others comments becuz there are certainly bad & good comments. i don't there is such perfect company that provides everthing. as a worker, we have accept the fact

Hmm.... Standard Chartered branch manager just call me up for an interview tomorrow though is weekend. She wanted to interview me for the post of sales....
I wonder how the sales in SCB is like. Very though? Or still ok.?? what about comparing SCB with other banks? I am presently doing quite well in Hong Leong. But just felt tired traveling for work. So tempting to move back to hometown where the SCB is. Really need to know more about the sales target if anyone here can help. Thx so much in advance. |
