Exact had been in KL present for more than 6 years already. And yes, they specialize in ERP solution.

Benefit wise, I heard its one of the best.
But I heard that HR can remote access to your machine to view what you're doing. Maybe Exact'ian can verify this. hehehe

And their office is located at KLCC (so syok, can take LRT to work)

samuelC, May I ask what you ask about Exact Software?

Wrong.

Exact:

High salary, if you requested at starting
Higher salary staff get higher increment
Lower salary staff remain the same and no matter how hard they work, no one know
Gosok kasut the most important thing, manager like you, give you high rating
Lot of politic issue
Structure always change
When come to review, compare senior staff and junior staff (How can compare like that)...

bad rumors are everywhere. every place has their pros and cons.. have u seen or been in any company without these kind of problem. there must be something lack inside, but if u tend to look on the brighter side- I guess things will be better.

recently i heard from my friend who currently working in exact, their management changed again.. then he looking for job now. maybe is not secure for him anymore

when a management change, means their ppl will change/increase/descrease.

if you lucky to join their SDK team. u might have chance to learn their technology. what i heard from my friend who work on ASP.NET project, those custom appz software developer no need to code much. mostly generate from tool.

they got their own ASP.NET control. so mostly just choose what u want to validate. no need to code a lot of thing..

this is what i know though.

yeah, they treat the staff very unfair.

If you good in brushing the manager's shoe, you will be able to get high increment, and also you are right, those pretty girls really having high pay in Exact. They judge the staff increment by a graph or something, and this is not fair to all the staff, because of this graph thing those low pay staff, don't have chance to get high increment, and those old staff or should I called Senior, get very high increment, this is because Senior knew more about the products, but this cannot compare among senior and junior staff, really unfair.

Low pay still low pay, and high pay will get even higher pay.

And you are right, they are having management changing right now and also a lot of process will be changed soon too.

My friends who work like hell in there get low salary and low increment, and most of them planned to find a new job.

emm... I'm still working with Exact.
If you considering to join, then consider this.
- you will not get high increment (if you are lucky, may be 5%)
- no bonus
- increasing job load (downsize resource)
- gonna implement KPI soon, to measure your performance. And the KPI will become harder each year. If you doing the same as you done for last year, you will score unsatisfactory
- lots of politic issue (as usual)
- if you happen to work in the .Net team, may be you need to sing and do exercise every morning.. hahah (new management style)
- .Net team are require to work until 8pm daily, including Sat and Sun, without OT on normal working day
- don't think there's anymore training, on the job may be. (since no more trainer)
- staff benefit is measure according to local international company and Exact NL, take only those part that are lowest from both.
- lots of ppl leaving soon.
- will not have enought experience ppl to guide you when you join, it's like blind leading the blind.
- there's a performance curve, every review, there will be 10% of ppl in your small team that fall into this bottom and need to go thru 'rework'
- even if you get promoted, you increament will come 1 year later.

Too much ... They are really a bunch of monkeys, wasting company's money and resources, if you want to be a star, join NTV7/TV8 star search program. Don't be so silly and childish enough to think this will increase morale among staff ... a hill of shit of bull (bullshit)!

I'm neutral, but telling the truth.
It has got the best environment/equipment for u, but it has got the worst manager telling you to follow their shit-plan.

It has got some of the best smart ideas, but it has got a lot dumb head seniors & managers who scrap it (they understand only "IF i do not understand it THEN it's a piece of junk END IF").

It has got the best process/procedure for software development but it has got the No-Ball'est manager to deliver junk code (well they are hired just to say "Yes it can be done" or "Yes it's a brilliant idea" + some tail-shaking to their bosses)

If u wan a place to get ready for retirement, and if you can talk well, and if you have a good brush, and if you do smoke and finally if you wana work in KLCC, your skill in software engineering doesnt matter, go ahead and you'll probably hv a great future.

Conclusion, great company + superb dump manager (in KLCC) = God Bless U

Trust me, this is the geniune (120%) experience of me, no xtra but ony less (only the most important problem here). Thing like bonus, i dun reali giv a shit (IF it's a great place to work) thumbup.gif

My friend is still working in this company. He mention that those manager that got promoted or hired all of them work in this company less than 5 years. So do you wan to work in a company where your boss only have less than 5 years in this company, that do not know much thing? I also wonder why, maybe because those manager are good in one thing - talk(cakap - cakap kosong).

Had a chat with some exact staff. Said that they hv an issue with deadwood managers. Actually, they are more like clerks - just there to do admin for their staff. that is why doing re-org. plan to bring in outsiders to "execute" the "order 66" and to revamp the org.

dunno how true or not lah... onli hear ppl talk niah.

yea..i do agree that overall exact is a good co la...but then it is still lacking in mgmnt compared 2 oth bigger cos la...a lot of managers only look at things on the surface side...and moreover the chances of moving forwared and being promoted is slim....it is only a suitable place for gaining some training and basic working experience..

I have a few friends working inside there b4. They are ex-exactian. (I do not work inside)

One of them told me that. In Exact your work routine is the same everyday. according to him it is kinda boring. There is less challenge here.

Another senior friend is planing to leave soon. I'm not sure when he will leave, but from his expression, he is not very happy to intro me to go into this company. He told me last year a lot of restructuring inside exact. Some departments are very busy/overloaded. Some are very free and have nothing to do. Things change so much and a lot of people moving out from exact. He suggest that it is not a good idea to stay here long. but if you want to have experience as a stepping stone, it may well worth it.

He is the one who reference me for the interview, one thing it caught me surprise that the interviewer claim VB6 is Object-Oriented blink.gif Do they really know VB6?

Newcomers may find things to learn from the beginning, and of cos, strike your salary expectation as high as you think you worth it.

Woo seem like many thing happen in Exact. Seriously i was thinking to join in. But when i send the resume they reject mine as i don't have enough experience. They said at least 3 years experience. That is bad for me as that time i only got 1 year. I never been to a MNC company and i wanted to try as have some nightmare in the private company.

Based on what billytong said, OMG the interviewer said that VB6 is OO? Then what is .NET. But anywhere if got chance i think i also want to try out Exact. Now i also looking for MNC company, is there any?

My friend who worked there told me the new manager always mention he buy burger for Bill Gates, typical shoe polisher! Also don't know what is so proud about that.

He also always mentioned alot about Microsoft, but already quit from there. Maybe Microsoft fire him, so no choice but come work there!

Ya, 100% shoe polisher. Shame on him. Buy burger only ? May be he not done enought so get fired by Microsoft. If he willing to lick Bill Gates's ass, he should still be in Microsoft now. He need to seriously consider this. But then, He now at the right place to strengthen his shoe polishing skill.

Sadly, Exact was a good company in old time, remember last time when ppl talk about Exact, everyone give a tumb up, and if you go for interview and ppl know that you're from Exact, high change you get hire.
And then, see what the company is becoming now, management want to put the blame on staffs for not working hard, not creative, not die for the company, but they didn't look at themself, actually they're the source of the problem. Cause at the end, they're the one who set the direction, they should lead by example and not just talk and do the otherwise.
Lots of ppl resign because they're lost, they lose hope on the company, they can't see their future, they're being treat as robot to just blindly follow orders. Yes, the management did encourage you to voice out, but then be careful cause they didn't tell you what going to happen to you when you voice up.
And in Exact, you see lots of shoes polisher get promoted, new shoes polisher joining in. And what happen to those who sit quietly and work hard ? They will continue to sit quietly and work hard, become a stepping stone for those shoes polisher.
I just doubt what the mangement is doing ? Are they just waiting for they compensation ? Just take and leave like the CEO of HP ?
When a new management on board, few things they can do to proof their value. The best is cutting cost and imporve productivity by streamline the process. If they not able to do so, then two things they can do, reduce headcount and maintain the productivity or maintain the headcount and increase the productivity. And the later is what I see happening in Exact, but they still a failure and creating a hell.

I work more than 5 years here. currently the new promoted & recruited manager are not qualify and good in shoe polishing. They always polish and good in talking. This impress the high management. That's how they got thier job.


My friend told me that some time those staff who attend the meeting will have door gift(plastic ball, chocolate, candies, ice-cream). I think later will have more lucky draw and mysterious gift.

Why not to work for this company:

1. Little or no room for growth - In certain cost centres, there is little or no room for growth. This means that three years down the road you will most probably still be doing what you are doing when you joined.
2. Repetitive job scope - Most tasks are repetitive in nature. For example: Bug fixing and testing.
3. Dated technology - Most of the modules are built using VB6. These modules will be maintained till the next product is launched. That will be in 2010.
4. Relatively cheap labour - Why do you think the development centre is located in KL? Why are there no innovation centres being set up in KL but instead in places like Silicon Valley and India. Are Malaysians not good enough to create and innovate?
5. Exodus - Currently experiencing exodus where people are resigning every week.
6. Bond - New employees will be bonded for 1.5 years now as opposed to 1 year previously.

Why work for this company:

1. ? - Still scratching my head thinking of a reason. Ohh yes, there is a chance for new employees to travel to Delft in the Netherlands.

Wow the bond has increase to 1.5years? blink.gif I assume that is the newly introduce since last year. In my opinion, a good company need not bond. Employee will stay if they are doing well. It seems to me that they are stopping people from leaving so quickly by using bond. It is getting worst I must say. tongue.gif

They seems to look for young slave robotic programmer who willing to do repetitive job everyday.

apple polish or shoe polish is a normal norm in exact..if u dun do dat u dun get promoted or recognized..therefore the quiet and the better ones are better let off in 1 corner of d company while the seniors go out mingle wif d mgrs..as if we dun contribute anything 2 d co oso..com 2 tink of it..without us wat r dey 2dy...we juniors mai s wel quit n let d seniors do al d wrk...we slog n strugle mor than dem but the wrds of praises, gratitude n rewards r al taken by dem..dey walkin away wif these al hapily in frnt of us taking us s invisible ppl..ppl wif no felins, opinions n mind of own...

Network adminitrastor guys always give problem, that we always know. The rule of the game is simple, do not use office/comapny internet factilties to log on to this forum or post anyhing. They might have program to track which computer login to which website. Even your email is not safe. Why not use other internet facilites that not belong to the company.

Hahahahaha...

Sorry that I just wanna LOL when looking at this thread, it has been long that I didn't come to this forum and suddenly found a thread about a company I worked before. I left less than 2 yrs ago.

I think some statements here are true about Exact, some are not... or maybe there were much more things happened after I left. Well, I personally think Mick has given fairest comments.

Of course one shouldn't post anything about current company using current company's network! If I were the boss, I would react in the same way too tongue.gif

Exact had been in KL present for more than 6 years already. And yes, they specialize in ERP solution.

Benefit wise, I heard its one of the best.
But I heard that HR can remote access to your machine to view what you're doing. Maybe Exact'ian can verify this. hehehe

And their office is located at KLCC (so syok, can take LRT to work)

samuelC, May I ask what you ask about Exact Software?

Hey, my gf's sis is currenctly working there as a programmer i guess.
About the remote cctv thingy, I've heard from her mentions that it has been removed due to some people misused it. It was set up for all the workers to "SEE" whether the person u r looking is at their desk or not, not only for HR.

Good luck.

Recently, notice that lots of foreigner being indirectly assign to head different section of the Development center. Wonder is the starting of switching back the control back to Nertherland. If so, can imagine that what will be happen next. Once everthing in proper place and fully documented, then everyone is replacable, without lost of knowledge. And they can swift the development center to somewhere else anytime.
Also notice some newly promoted manager, is like shit, do nothing and walk around freely everyday. Make me wonder, what is the guideline to get promoted.

This company is going through restructing since last year. Reason behind restructuring is because previous managment team(4 donkey) made a very big messs and ppl in Nertherland also dun like those 4 donkey style of manage the company. Now send 1 big boss here to change everything. those 4 idiot no more.

don't really remember me doing a test before joining but i hv some fun in Exact. This is some weird company. When i was there, they were expanding and 3 mths later, they need to re-structure. staff leave like lalat kena squash. That was abt 5-6yrs ago. Now they are re-structuring again...!!!

One funny thing about this company is when i was there, handphone ringing are not allowed in the office. If you are caught with your phone ringing, you'll get a nasty mail from one of those ang moh. But i think its some weird policy of that particular ang moh... heard he has left the company.

as a fren recently told me, Exact gv half mth bonus for the first time in many many years.

I think Exact is rather "popular" among recruitment firm. When headhunter saw Exact in my resume, they would ask me abt the company.

Exact use to have some good people but most of those i know left due to work environment. If you wanna join them, grill the HR fella that interview you about the work culture there...!!!

wah.. if the manager has personal dislike towards you then you die.. even if you didn't do anything wrong... or even if what you do is not a really big problem .. i think your future is with selling "nasi lemak"

who knows.. "nasi lemak" also can't sell.. because the "nasi lemak" industry also will know...

anyway... rumours are rumours lar.. let the real person speak out otherwise how do we know if it's true after all... ??

on second thoughts.. the real person might have forgiven them.. so i suggest you write about your own personal feelings rather than quoting rumours

indeed. And the best part is it is turning into a MLM company rclxm9.gif

They dont sing song or shouting "who are we? we are we are Syxxxxy!!"

The latest one is "Fu ... Yoh ~~~~" Can you imagine that? a software company ! thumbup.gif (BUT i still prefer the old Exact with the 4 monkeys sad.gif sad.gif)

By the way, anybody wants to order kuih or nasi lemak pls feel free to call the so called GM, he told the whole company that he owns a factory making kuihs and nasi lemak. Exact orders food from his company for all the employee events or tea break or breakfast meetings or etc etc etc.

funny? wait until u join Exact.
You can either join the shoes polisher gang (where 90% of the managers are doing, especially those who under who are we's team) or sit down quietly and WATCH them polish shoes.

we dont really sing, we shout, step heavily on the floor or hit the table. Interesting?

want to have good life in Exact? tell u wat. Get to know who are we and HR manager, u will be getting lots and lots of benefit where the rest cannot get !!

although i don't like the four monkey either, but if i got to choose, i will choose the four monkey, eventhough they hamsap or dumb, but at least they not making my life miserable.

look at what this proton guy is doing, he really think this's his company, wonder the proton loosing so much money is because he monopoly the kuih and nasi lemak business in proton... hahaha. forcing proton to buy at a price higher then market rate. this's the mentality of this ultimate corrupter. he just using the company's money to bribe more shoes polisher and build his gang. damn good in politic, what a waste not become a dirty politician, just few months he now taking over the ADC.

don't know what the german idiot is here for also, oh, no.. not a idiot, he's damn smart, just join Exact and immediate go for medical leave for few months and earning he salary. then hire a shoes polisher to take over his place and now back to holand goyang kaki. please hire me for this instead, i sure can do a better job then him.

restructure the whole company to make it a mess, setup all those nonsense team that do nothing. i think Exact's CEO must be blind.

ok, it's me that having problem, you say. then try to look at the situation where more and more people resign, tell me, who's the problem. recently, even one of the ultimate shoes polisher ass man... opps, it's ass women manager also resign. can anyone see the seriousness of the problem ?

if you like this mess, or if you are shoes polisher, welcome to join the party biggrin.gif . will not be hard to join, just polish the HR manager shoes harder will do, and you shall have a good life here.

Proton guy (or we can call him as Bill Gates's best fren) is very very good in playing politics. He is now building up his own territory and i m amazed that he can do it within few months time. Thanks to the blinded German and HR. But again, HR doesnt seem to bother, in order to safe her job (like most of the staffs here). She once said, if u are not happy working here u can leave, we can hire some more. Yes, she is now happily hiring her own frens and also Proton guy's frens. rclxms.gif

Look at all the Syxxxgy managers, those are really dump asses and only good in talking and polish shoes and YET their pay (basic + pti) is nearly 5 figures. Can u imagine some staffs are only getting 3k - 4k? Just because some managers is too good in planning, or may be just for the sake of giving good impression to Proton guy, we have to work day and night just to finish their impossible missions. At the end, managers get the credits but not us (eg. managers get to go to KLGCC for team building. Staffs can only makan kuihs and nasi lemak in office)

- if you would like to be managed by monkey, why do you still work with ADC?
- if you have so much pain working in ADC, why not find a better job?
Unless you are not competence enough and no other company wanted you.
- if you have the ball and what ever you said here is true. why not you raise this to top management?
do not talk to a stupid computer forum that have no life.
- why not talk to top management which (ever level you prefer eg:CEO), which manager is shoe polisher and cannot deliver.
i do not think that a public listed company will ever keep shoe polisher that can't generate value for company.
- if you think that your idea is great and can do much better than the german, why not sales your idea.
you will be the next director and you will have the right to fire all shoe polisher.
- perhaps you are leaving the office too early to see some shoe polisher work until late night.

my final advise for you is be a MAN with ball, voice out your concern face to face lound and clear.
if you do not dare to voice out your concern then sit back there and suffer,
because you just do not deserve anything. you do not even respect yourself to be a human,
you do not event have guts to express your real feeling to another human that understand you.

if i have the money, i will sure hire you to manage my company.
you have all the technique and skill set to identify shoe polisher and have brilliant idea to imporve a company.
but before that, please install your missing ball..... doh.gif

Erm, I think you guys need to have an anonymous board (much like 4chan) in your company network, then flame away anonymously at each other (hope the admin didn't logged ip). Ask those in NL to participate too! Much better than having a meeting right? laugh.gif p/s: i lol'd in amusement

indeed. And the best part is it is turning into a MLM company  rclxm9.gif

They dont sing song or shouting "who are we? we are we are Syxxxxy!!"

The latest one is "Fu ... Yoh ~~~~" Can you imagine that? a software company !  thumbup.gif (BUT i still prefer the old Exact with the 4 monkeys  sad.gif sad.gif)

By the way, anybody wants to order kuih or nasi lemak pls feel free to call the so called GM, he told the whole company that he owns a factory making kuihs and nasi lemak. Exact orders food from his company for all the employee events or tea break or breakfast meetings or etc etc etc.

How convinient  rclxms.gif

Now adays I do heard my manger said Fu Yoh to everyone of us. I wonder whether I work in digi or Exact. I'm confuse.......... Maybe so called GM that like to shout Fu Yoh is trying to do cheap advertisement for Digi in Exact. He try to sell digi and fight with compettitor Maxis that next to this building.

Exact ADC Software in KLCC?? Basically it is a 'KANASAI' company, dunno whether the botak director from netherland still there or not his stupid name sound somehting like Donald the cartoon duck...

Basically what they do is find excuses not to pay what you suppose to get for your last month salary when u resigned, such as short payment of OT la, allowance la... I personally kena "cheated" by this so call international company RM250 when I resigned, of course they find a tonne of reasons not to pay me that RM250 la.

Shame on them, even local company will not do something like that...

Want to join the company?? Then you must be funny, people are a trying to get out from that hell la....

- if you would like to be managed by monkey, why do you still work with ADC?
- if you have so much pain working in ADC, why not find a better job?
Unless you are not competence enough and no other company wanted you.
- if you have the ball and what ever you said here is true. why not you raise this to top management?
do not talk to a stupid computer forum that have no life.
- why not talk to top management which (ever level you prefer eg:CEO), which manager is shoe polisher and cannot deliver.
i do not think that a public listed company will ever keep shoe polisher that can't generate value for company.
- if you think that your idea is great and can do much better than the german, why not sales your idea.
you will be the next director and you will have the right to fire all shoe polisher.
- perhaps you are leaving the office too early to see some shoe polisher work until late night.

my final advise for you is be a MAN with ball, voice out your concern face to face lound and clear.
if you do not dare to voice out your concern then sit back there and suffer,
because you just do not deserve anything. you do not even respect yourself to be a human,
you do not event have guts to express your real feeling to another human that understand you.

if i have the money, i will sure hire you to manage my company.
you have all the technique and skill set to identify shoe polisher and have brilliant idea to imporve a company.
but before that, please install your missing ball..... doh.gif

I think everyone here would like to know who is this person - shrek3. We do see many of our forumer are saying nothing but the truth about this person - proton/micorosoft guy, buy nasi lemak, person that shout fu yoh for no reason, a non stop talk person(talk like machine gun buatan russia).

Today we see shrek3 try to defence and challenge our forumer - whoarewe. I think only person who is guilty or feel bad of himself will try to defence and bother. Too many thing that is truth about shrek3 and he feel the spotlight is on him. Malay proverb is suitable for you - 'Siapa yangmakan chili dialah yang rasa pedas'.

finally, we seen one shoes polisher (sherk3) trying to show his ball. sherk3, if you really have a ball, why not list down your name, your position and your contribution to Exact, let the world judge on it, especially those in Exact. or you want to tell me that you don't have ball ? come on, we are waiting to see how many balls you have.

you see, this's the typical mentality of the management in Exact. we work so hard for years and grow Exact into a few hundred peoples company. and these new comer telling us that we have 3 choices, first is to join their shoes polish gang and polish each other shoes and have a good life, second is to sit quietly and do the stupid thing they ask us to do and enjoy the miserable life, third is to leave. they don't even want to find out what's the problem. they just telling you that, "yes, I want to hear the truth", and on the other hand, asking you to leave for telling the truth.

wonder why the proton guy join Exact if he's so good, ok, he might tell me that Exact is much more better the Microsoft and even proton is better then Microsoft. why he get fired by Microsoft then ? is he in fight with Microsoft's mangement for disallowing him to sell his kuih and nasi lemak there ?

if he really a good business man, he should have stay and grow with his business. why he join Exact then ? if he really a good employee, he should have stay with his first company and work his way through. why he leave Microsoft then ? no shoes to polish ? he's just an opportunist

Seriously, if working in Exact is as bad as you describe, then why don't you just leave the company? If you've got the qualifications, skills and knowledge, I'm sure you'd be able to secure a job with a better future.

Office politics... which company doesn't have them? Even in government offices (where everyone thinks life is a bore!), staff play office politics too. Why? Simply coz they think that's the fastest way to get noticed and move up the corporate ladder. Yes... there are shoe polishers in Exact, but there will come a time when these shoe polishers have to proof their worth. Recent changes in the org structure have seen a reshuffling of the middle management, with some of those "shoe polishers" being assigned to manage new teams. Don't you notice that amongst those that have resigned, there are those "shoe polishers" who no longer can shine shoes and kiss those "white asses" like they used to? It is pretty obvious that the reshuffling exercise is also testing their capabilities. Perhaps they are also aware that they can no longer "have their cake and eat it" and have decided to move on.

Yes, there are also staff leaving because of many other reasons. Some because of higher pay, better job prospects, change of job scope, travel opportunities, etc. The list can go on and just narrowing it down to simply blaming the current management is a rather shallow analysis of the situation.

"The 4 monkeys"... what good have they brought? All those promotion and high increment for "shoe polishers" was done during the 4 Monkeys' era. Now that they are no longer in the management, these "shoe polishers" are also scared shit of they own "rice bowl".

Is there really nothing positive to say? I think you're missing out on a recent case where the management DID listen to what the staff had to say. For example, a Mgr was "demoted" when his staff grouped up and complained about him to the Management. He transferred to another team and eventually left the company. This example has shown the middle mgmt that they are not as high-and-mighty as they think. Some are beginning to show some improvement in their people-skills, unlike before where there were Mgrs who shouted at their staff without giving a damn whether other people heard. What about those all-expense paid sports activities organized for staff? And extra fund allocation for self-organized team events? Bear in mind that not many companies would pay for these extra curricular activities.

Management change/ restructuring happens ... and usually old staff find it the hardest to embrace new changes. Maybe some of the planning and processes are questionable, but a lot of what is currently being implemented is done as a learning process for a lot of the middle mgmt and staff. Maybe, we should give the new management setup a chance to proof what they can do. It's been barely a few months and is still too early to say how good or bad they are. Sometimes, if you don't try, you don't know.

As for team building at KLGCC for the Managers, so what about it? Lots of other companies do that for their managers too! If you're so concerned about spending the day at KLGCC, then do something and get yourself promoted. Become a Manager... then go and have your lunch at KLGCC. And, don't forget to treat your staff too!

BTW... the singing has already stopped. And step heavily on the floor and hitting tables??? Haven't seen that yet.

thanks for admitting the fact that THERE ARE shoe polishers in Exact, but seriously, you Exact managers only mix with other managers most of the time. so how much can you see? Even if you do not mix with them much, a good manager wil be able to detect shoe polishers.. the problem is.. most managers there are technically incompetent.. or prefer to be shoe polished...so how would they know who is doing a better job over the other? Thus, I'm not surprise many shoe polishers come into the picture... as you said... and admitted, it's the fastest way in Exact to rise!!

yup.. true.. but seriously.. if your company is truly fantastic... why would anyone leave? if they are really bad staff.. why did you all employ them in the first place? i remembered a senior manager said that those left are ALL imcompetent bunch as they are only rated "C" and only 1 or 2 are rated "B". The fact is, most are rated "C" so 90% of you guys are imcompetent... think about that.

please do not blame everything on them... the current management isn't really fantastic after all... in fact, exact was more open before the new came in. In other words.. more doesn't trust the management now, it is less open now... thus, this forum came into the picture to voice out their disatisfaction

hahaha.. this is a joke.. what about the case where some of your colleagues are "warned" with harsh words for whatever reason? not to mention "shrek3"'s post that sounded very much like someone we all know too well... if this is the kind of managers you have, better stay away man... but i must find out if it's still true of the rumours...

barely few months eh? i think it's about halve a year or more already... we shall see then... the question is, after 6 or more months , shouldn't the situation be improving?? so is the situation worse with the old management or new?

hhmm.. old staff find it hard to embrace? first of all, are we embracing the good stuffs?? that's the other question..

Could someone pls share his link with me?

Sometimes i wonder, would our lives be better if Exact hired someone else but not ak, hexxy and HR? Or its gonna be worse?

Went for an interview recently, hope can get the job.

Cannot agree the way they treat us, especially asking ppl to leave or to stay....... Obviously some of them (shoes polishers and the dictator himself) are not happy about the comments here. If they really do, pls leave. They also have to choose to leave or to stay ma....

I remember when i joinned, the old Management always told us that employees are their assets. What happened now? The dictator recently said those who have left are those who are not contributing. So dear fellows, think twice b4 joining Exact.

Exact is just a company. All company is having their pro and con. There is something that amazed me is, such a bad company but, there is still so many people working there. And those who's complain that this company sooooo bad, why are you guys still there? And for those who just silently sit there and focus their own little world, how the management should or able to notice you? Shoe polisher is happened anywhere. Well, if your management value solely on this kind of people, it's too bad or there is something that you guys did not see??

All I can say is, stop whinning as it will not bring you elsewhere. You don't like, you look for a better ones.

I got no relationship with this and I do enjoy the show.

ai yo.. that's what i meant in the first place. those of you not happy.. chow lar........... chow far far away...... why suffer inside and get threats by managers??? when they have better people joining Exact, they will categorize you as "noisy ducks" and push you out if you're a "duck" of course!!! (but i'm still confused if those rated "C" are "ducks" if so, please leave immediately!!) and also dun bother to talk to your manager, they might categorize you as "ducks" too!

no lar.. it's not a totally bad company. they have good working environment, physical environment to be exact. you'll get good new pcs, intel core 2 duo maybe 2 GB RAM, anyway, what they are trying to do now is to "clear old stock"; which means now, it seems that they will only take in "super qualified" people and try to so call emulate microsoft? so if you guys can get in.. that means you are "super qualified" and after that whether you are REALLY "super qualified" or not, it's all up to you. but if you get inside.. one word of advice, be VISIBLE.. and super visible... you don't have to be really good.. just enough to bluff your way through (since they won't really know who are the really good ones anyway, mostly based on how you potray yourself)... and yeah.. please practice your "fu yooh" shouts... it might come in handy

ai yo!! more than 400 pple still working inside mar... if 100 left, there are 300 more!!! looks like they are not very bothered anyway. like i said.. they want to "clear old stock" or what shrek3 put it.. "ducks"

if you're a tiger, please join. brainy or not, nevermind. it depends on how you potray yourself as i'd mentioned. if you're a duck.. stay away and they'll love me for saying this!!

disclaimer: i'm not paid to help promote Exact

This is a common problem in IT world. Not necessary to be in Exact only you aware such thing. Or you have not realise it? Tell me which IT company don't have this problem and why not you guys join them? Instead of sticking with Exact? Your way of comment show how narrow your mind is. Shrek3 maybe a manager in Exact but what's he commented there is certain truth even if you guys might not like it.

This is a common forum too, access by various people. Not only for Exact people like you. And those who don't agree with you, you think them as 1 of Exact manager. In some point, I understand why you complain so much.

looks like all guys ever do around here is just to complain and feel sympathetic about yourselves. i do not have any affiliations with exact and i'm not biased towards anyone. but it seems to me that all you people are only concerned about is your own negative opinions about the company and no one else's, that you are the victims and everyone should feel sorry for you.

why is it that you all can dish out harsh criticism but cannot receive it as well ie. if you're so unhappy working in exact, take action. if the management does not listen, form a committee and speak to them face to face. if exact is as bad as you say it is, i'm sure you'll have many supporters; and i don't think exact can afford to terminate all of you if u stand united. if all else failes, then find a better job and leave. u are in charge of your own life, not exact. else what's the point in whining around in a forum and nothing gets done.

if you guys are still working with exact, then there must be something good about the company. else why would you still be going back to your little cubicle every day to work.

That lawrence guy also have a hamsap blog containing a collection of his "hamsap sightings".

See this URL quickly:
http://penggaram.0163286699.com/

Now you know he specializes in "these kind of things" and everyone in Exact knows.

You all know why he was "forced to resign"? Basically it was not really due to blogging or due to "customer curious and ask explaination from management" and "Management beh song so wan to get a scapegoat and they found him" as quoted from his blog ...

It's becoz he hamsap some girls colleagues in Exact by asking her what is the color of her underwear today and telling girls of her bra-strap and colors.

Hey Lawrence, u're very lucky Exact did not lodge a police report against you. What u're doing is actually a criminal act of sexual harassment in the workplace. U somemore got the chick to say Exact ill-treated u and threaten ur ex-colleagues?!?!?!

U should post a public apology in ur blog.

yup, you're definitely right! there's no perfect company and other companies might have their own problems. but seriously, there are better companies out there too!! think about it. i agree that those who are not happy with exact, resign!! cabut man.. what are you guys waiting for?

eerr.. are you related to Shrek3 ah? yup, what he says has truth in it but you like managers who talk about "balls" and threaten people right? good, then come join us then.. by the way, how much do you know Shrek3 if you're not working here?

hahaha.. dun worry CityManiac, just join in the "fun".

there's a reason why this forum came about like I said. the management is not as open as before. and if you complain to express your displeasure too much, you'll be blacklisted. many had experienced this before. by the way, have you read the entire forum and see what's all this about? what are the problems we face etc etc? i invite you to join exact if you can. do come and see for yourself.

hey, u think we can get a new job in an instant ah? if you're a nasi lemak tychoon's son then go ahead. moreover, we are bounded by 1.5 years contract... like i said .. have you been following the forum??? i can't be repeating the same points over and over again!

as for the person who blogs about the company, too bad for him. you're not too smart after all!! doh.gif

CityManiac, garytong, zggyzgg & 6699 y u guys so offended when we talk about Exact? In fact, some of us did talk to Management, end up being blacklisted or asked to leave (as mentioned by spiderman3). And now we cant even talk in the forum izit?!?!??! For those who wants to join pls read this forum and see how the management acts.

We have freedom to write whatever we want to, i dont see any problem with Lawrence's blog. You management just scared the shit out of it when ppl are trying to disclose the true picture.

spiderman3, wub.gif sorry, i will control my temper abit inorder not to become Shrek3.

i agree... so tata lawrence, dun come and kacau...

by the way, i don't see anything wrong with the "fu yoh" shouts though.. at least it's better than "singing". this is how the management nowadays try to create.. they want a united team by creating a corporate culture. a culture whereby all exact-ians or synergians to be exact, can identify, but please lar, you don't need to sing or shout to create a good culture. somehow, synergians are not too keen on these sort of singing. find some other ways. but first earn the employee's trust first. why don't you guys do a survey on the "new management" and "old management"? see what's the difference and try to move up from there.

and please, try to understand that the reason why we complain is not because we want to leave exact but because we hope for something better. but after much complains and nothing seemed to work or got worse, then how? cabut lar... still stay and rot meh?

Indeed, we tot the 4 monkey era was bad. Was hoping to change a new Management. When we got to know some one new was gonna take over, we were happy. But we didnt expect it changed from bad to worse. Very disappointed. My personal opinion, the German and HR are not up to the standard to manage Exact.

The problem is the current management doesnt know what is their problems. I think they DO listen to us BUT do nothing. It affects the whole Exact in terms of morale, and reputation.

whoarewe?, dont be frustrated, we all the same, if we manage to find a job just leave in peace like everybody else.

If you compare the new Exact with old Exact, you may understand why we so unhappy. The problem is the current management doesnt know what is their problems. I think they DO listen to us BUT do nothing. It affects the whole Exact in terms of morale, and reputation.

this is what I call EDLC... an Exact Development Life Cycle

1. Old Exact - management by fear and other points
2. "mind map" ( or problem) identified by patel big boss & geng
3. communications task force in place (where are they now?)
4. "silver era"? (not golden yet since got production problem)
5. new boss - change processes
6. more new bosses - do they know about the "mind map" anyway?
7. Old Exact style (back to square one) - management by fear and other points created

Walaoeh!!!!

This is good man !!! This is the first time i read a forum that give so bad comment about a company, Exact.

I'm not working in this company but i know this company, i have few good friends working there, and, i'm working in the same building where Exact is.

All the comments made here are just bad things about the company, management and staff/managers.

Let's face it, this kind of issues exists in all the company, if not all, most of it. There are few hundres employees in the company, for sure there will be some politics, shoe polishers, etc, etc. Which company doesn't have this kind of issues ?

Most of you are right, especially "whoarewe", u have the right to hate the company, the management and the employees working in Exact; but let's face it, these kind of things exists everywhere, not only in a working place, it migt exists in your family that maybe you don't like your sister or your brother; it also exists among your friends where u might hate some of your friends.

Any company we work in, i'm pretty sure that there will be something that we do not like, there will be some policies that we do not like, there will be some processes that we do not like, and there will be some colleagues that we do not like. But then what the heck ? Everytime you have these kind of feeling, you will come to a forum and complaint about it ?

Don't forget, when u hate somebody, somebody might hate you too; and by saying bad things about a company in a public forum, using company resources to do so, it's not a wise way, and indeed you are not a wise person.

And one thing i want to mention, which is, things/processes/policy/collegues that are bad in your point of view, doesn't mean it is bad for everybody. For example, maybe you don't like the movie Pirates of the carribean, doesn't mean everyone doesn't like it too. You see that girl is not pretty, doesn't mean that everyone will think the same way too.

It is not fair to say bad things to a company, it is not fair for the company and not fair to other people that think this is a good company. Some people might think this is a bad company with bad management and managers, but some people think this is a good company with good management and good managers which cares about their staff. How about if there are few people saying a lot of good things about this company in this forum, then what other people will think ?

For people that hate this company, for sure you have your reasons. For those whole like this company, for sure there are reasons why they like it too. But i'm not saying that people that like this company are the one who got the most attention or the one who gets the most benefits, they might be some normal staffs (not management level) who are comfortable working in this company which they think this is a great company.

I knew that this company went through a restructuring process, and normally what people think about restructuring is a bad thing, most people will have the same equation : restructuring = bad.

Think about it, nobody plan for a failure, but only fail to plan. Restructuring or whatever you call it, it's not a bad thing, do you think that the management or the board will simply do a restructuring for fun ? Do you think that the management/board sit in a meeting and said "Hey guys, let's do something fun, let's restructure the company, that will be fun."

Management/board will always want a better environment for the staff, a better process to have more efficiency, increase profit, increase productivity, and restructuring is just one of the way to do it. Restructuring is not an easy task to do, i'm sure the management has put lots of effort to plan and try to make things happen to the better for everyone, don't forget the management/board are employee of the company too, if what they planned fails, they are responsible for it, and they might loose their job if bad things really happen.

Most of the people do not like changes, mostly for staff who works long enough in the company, because there have already used to the way they are doing things, and changes means they have to change their way of working they are so familiar with. And the one who doesn't like changes will eventually hate it.

But, bear in mind that a plan, or a well plan, doesn't mean it be successful at the end. No, this is not the case. A plan is just a road map or a guideline what to do next. Maybe at the middle of the plan, something went wrong and bad things happen (well, plan do fails), at this point of time, people who are affected by this will be the one who have lots of complaints (such as whoarewe). But let's face it, who can tell me whatever plan they do, sure will succeed !!!

Changes made (in this case, restructuring) to the company is not a 1 or 2 day task, it will take time, sometimes it might take years to see the effect; there will be some modifications to the plan wherever it fails, obstacles do happen, things that are planned might fail sometimes, this is normal; this even happen in our normal life. We are all adults, not fair to say that when plan fails, that means the management is bad.

I've also read somewhere here that saying there are shoe polishers, you are right, these kind of people do exists, not only in Exact, it exists everywhere. Some people want to climb up the ladder faster than anyone else, well, this is the easier way to do it. If the person who have his/her shoes polished and they like it, then what can you say?

Whichever company we work in, i'm pretty sure that there are things that we do not like, and don't forget, there are things that we like too. And i know that in Exact, there is a game room with foosball and xbox. Wow !!! How nice !!! I hope there is one in my company too. This is very good, this is the first time i've heard that a company set up a game room for their staffs, most of the company will want their staffs to work non-stop (if can), i've never heard a company would set up a game room for their staff to play and to have fun, this is surely a plus plus point. And the company is giving RM20 for their staff to do whatever event they want to do, this is also a great benefits; and recently i was told that there are FREE yoga class, FREE badminton, FREE futsal too. WOW !!!!!! Which company will really spend so much money for their staffs ? Well, at least not my company.

The bottom line is, bad things do happen in our life, not only in our working place. Do something and try to face it like a man, talk to somebody who has the power to make decision, if no action taken, talk to people with higher position, i've told by my friends that the new boss (andy if i'm not mistaken), is quite a nice guy who is open to any comment, and he take actions very fast. Hey, talking about this, i remember i've read in this forum saying that people are force to sing. But my friends told me that, nobody is forced to do so. You will not be fired if you don't sing. And recently there is no more singing, but a new thing came up, which is "FU-YOH". I think this is great, well, some people might think, am I working in MLM company ? Hahaha. Actually this is a way of raising our spirit, more motivation, not only MLM company do this, lots of company out there do this kind of things too.
If you don't like it, well, you no need to follow, and i think this will not affect your work, right ? If it is not affecting your work, then why complaint ? Maybe at some point in time during your work, when you accomplish something that you've worked on for some time, and you did it, you might say something to yourself such as "YES, YES, I DID IT". It's just that you say it to yourself, but not really shout it out, right ?

Wow, i've written so much, hahaha.. and i'm not even part of this company. But what i'm trying to say here is just my opinion.

I'm just glad I didn't join the company in the first place. Not to say the company is bad, but seeing there are problems and ppl like this in this company really gives a good impression that I made a right decision.

But I feel sorry for the other Exactians who has no problem with the management or the company culture- now ppl will have a bad perception about this company. And what's good left when u're can't be proud with what u doing for living?

well guys.. play nice nice..

I think you are a very young person, or a not so mature person, in terms of thinking. You think you've made a right decision for not joining the company because people saying bad things about the company. Mean if people saying good things about the company, then you will like to join ?

If you want to watch a movie, and you go ask people who had watched it whether its a good movie or not, some told you that it is a lowsy movie, and some says it is a great movie, then what do you do ? Watch or not watch ?

Bad for 1 person doesn't mean bad for other people. And good for 1 person doesn't mean good for others too. It is difficult to judge a company, even to judge some little thing, just from only a few people. There will be no perfect company which is perfect for everyone.

Again, I still prefer those who are not new here (see your post, not just registered new ID with 1 or 2 posts (all posts from the same topic: Exact software: is this a good company?)) to reply and give your/the sincere and fair opinion towards this company.

I hope all those from management of this company can accept this sincere and fair opinion, although I still doubt on them of having the capabilities to understand what is good management (because I don't think them (most of them) to have it) ... I can only see Fu Yoh management or management skill on selling/giving own-company nasi lemak/kuih to staff (don't you see this as conflict of interest here, direct or indirectly, especially those from high management? - don't ask me why I said it is conflict of interest for you, you must ask yourself sincerely, and no need to reply here for arguement because it is groundless for me to debate with you on the thing only you can answer by your sincere heart).

In on my opinion, Nasi lemak seller you are wrong here! Don't ever try to use your power to manipulate company resources in order to gain some benefit directly or indirectly. As Google said, you can do anything, but Don't be evil.

I hope you, besides learning the Microsoft stuffs, learn Google's as well, unless you are not willing to help Exactsoftware, but just come here for years and cheat pension of retirement. Don't be evil:

They are unbiased and objective, and we do not accept payment for them or for inclusion or more frequent updating. We also display advertising, which we work hard to make relevant, and we label it clearly. This is similar to a well-run newspaper, where the advertisements are clear and the articles are not influenced by the advertisers' payments. We believe it is important for everyone to have access to the best information and research, not only to the information people pay for you to see.

Well, since the management don't find conflicts of interest is not a problem, we better don't bring it up otherwise ppl like garytong and 6699 will start asking us to leave.

2 cents worth of opinion, each of every one of us knows how much we love this country, for those who don't like, they can definitely choose to stay or to migrate. But how many of us can afford to migrate?! Question, if you are not happy about something in this country and someone starts asking u to migrate to other country if you don't like the way it is here, what would you feel. Pls think twice before you tell ppl to leave without knowing what the real story is behind. And the Best Part is you don't even work in Exact.

garytong, I don't think you are that smart either when you start calling ppl a dumber. And you purposely registered yourself under the name of "garytong" just to post something to prented like God. I really doubt it when you claimed yourself never used company resources to do you personal thing or even express you unhappiness towards your company during office hours.

I also pity your boy/girl friend or family who have you such a PERFECT guy. You are too perfect for a normal human being.

6699, How true your statement is? Are you the one being harassed?

garytong and 6699 should also apologise to Lawrence too because what you heard and what is really going on might be 2 different things.

I'm not working in this company but i know this company, i have few good friends working there, and, i'm working in the same building where Exact is.

walaoeh, you are welcome to join us if you think you are old and mature enough. rolleyes.gif

I think you are a very young person, or a not so mature person, in terms of thinking.  You think you've made a right decision for not joining the company because people saying bad things about the company.  Mean if people saying good things about the company, then you will like to join ?

If you want to watch a movie, and you go ask people who had watched it whether its a good movie or not, some told you that it is a lowsy movie, and some says it is a great movie, then what do you do ? Watch or not watch ?

Bad for 1 person doesn't mean bad for other people.  And good for 1 person doesn't mean good for others too.  It is difficult to judge a company, even to judge some little thing, just from only a few people.  There will be no perfect company which is perfect for everyone.

Yes sir, indeed, I consider myself as green most the time. But please make no mistake from my statement, I'm not saying I'm glad I didn't joined the company because people were talking bad about it. but as I said, there are problem between the management and their ppl going on in Exact. which I don't wish to be a part of it.

And if there are friends who are giving very good recommendation about one particular company, I wish to work with that company, reputation is one thing. - I wish to see myself stay long with one company.

I do depends on some friends recommendation or review from the net when try to choose for my job or even for my movie sometimes... wink.gif - those who used to seat on the same room should known better.

And yes Sir, you're precisely right- if it's bad for 1 person doesn't mean it bad for others too. If I feel it doesn't suits me, doesn't mean it doesn't suit the others too.
my bad.

In this case, I don't think Exact is a bad company to work with, except MAYBE they just hired the wrong person- either the management or the ppl who express their feeling here. who knows..

Good luck to Exact, I hope they can sort this problem out. icon_rolleyes.gif icon_rolleyes.gif

haha.. good point msnice, i fully support you. but may be, we should join a company that most people saying bad things about, so to show that we are mature as base on the theory by walaoeh. hmm.gif

who is the most mature person here, that qualifed to tag others as not mature ? would you like the government to block you from access whatever information to make your own judgement saying that you are not mature enough to understand it ?

actually, at one hand, i hoping the management to share their thought here (which we already seen some here, although they pretend they are not from Exact/ management). but on the other hand, i think is better for the management to just keep quiet, or at least, think twice before speak up, so to avoid offend the public or show their narrow minded.

we join Exact and committed to put our full effort to make Exact a good company, but Exact dissapoint us by hiring some not qualified people to become the mangement. no, we have not lose all our hope for Exact yet, we still hoping it can sort this out, and we still waiting, but then, the mangement already starting to ask us to leave.

so, we share our thought here, voice our concern and disatisfaction. we belief, every public have the rights to know what is happening, to base on whatever information they can get, make their own judgement, because everyone here is mature enough to do so.

most interesting, sounds all too familiar
i'd like to throw in my 2 cents


2 parties can look at the same thing and come up with 2 different conclusions both true, they can both stand firm on their ground, nobody is wrong, it is just a matter of different "perception" - you might wanna read 7 habits of highly effective people

some other random thoughts, the same thing happens everywhere but of different degree, nothing is "fair" accept this reality

opportunities are most abundant in a chaotic/harsh environment than in a stable and organized environment, if you know what i'm saying

There's a manger that making people life miserable. I wonder you guys know this tranining manager? Last time when I came to training, he always always you when can finish this assignment that assignment. He thought this company is like his college.
Almost 1 week, three times he ask you. Now in his document team also the same issue. Always harras you by asking when you can finish the task. Every few day will ask you. That's why I said making peopl life miserable. Last time he got a small office now took over by HR.

He feel demoted. I heard he looking for job, maybe go back to college.

yeah, they treat the staff very unfair.

If you good in brushing the manager's shoe, you will be able to get high increment, and also you are right, those pretty girls really having high pay in Exact. They judge the staff increment by a graph or something, and this is not fair to all the staff, because of this graph thing those low pay staff, don't have chance to get high increment, and those old staff or should I called Senior, get very high increment, this is because Senior knew more about the products, but this cannot compare among senior and junior staff, really unfair.

Low pay still low pay, and high pay will get even higher pay.

And you are right, they are having management changing right now and also a lot of process will be changed soon too.

My friends who work like hell in there get low salary and low increment, and most of them planned to find a new job.

when you say low and high pay, how high and low is it? If i ask fo a $4k salary, would that be high or low? biggrin.gif

Hi Billytong, I have no idea who is your ex-college; but believe me, most of the posts in this forum are true. It is highly dependent on which department (or they call it cost center) your ex-college is/was in. If he/she is/was from finance development cc of one of the company's core product, there was a lot of changes for the past 3-4 years, and these changes, in my opinion is unnecessary because it relates/related to jockeying for office/position power.

These changes make the company becomes/became worst.

That's all I can tell.

P/S: Stay tuned, in future or near future, I might give constructive comment on this company, like I always did ... smile.gif

I just read the blog.

Based on archive, I think this fella got what he deserved.

He probably used company resources to blog bad stuff about his company, colleagues and seniors. True, he did not mention any names, but he DID use company resources and he even used his own mobile number as his url to complain about work place/employer, how dumb can this dood get? Of course his employer will know it's him, furthermore there're pictures of him in the blog.

This d00fus is really asking to be fired.

He threatened his colleagues in this entry.

http://my.0163286699.com/2007/05/thank-you.html
Then in this entry he insulted his colleagues/managers (QA etc)

http://my.0163286699.com/2007/05/life-is-hardeasy.html
I feel sorry for the company that hired this 'Lawrence' dude.

Even if Exact software is not a good company, but I believe based on what I read at this blog, they were justified to get rid of him, and they have been VERY kind in giving him an option to resign.

From my deduction after reading this doofus's blog, I think he needs to be blacklisted from the IT circle.

Really wonder where he got his brains from.

To this person, did you even know any website/url you accessed can be logged down in the company's internet gateway?!!!

How did you think your blog url was obtained? Must be the network guys in charge of the company's networks/servers lah.
http://my.0163286699.com/2007/06/forced-to-resign.html
Sue the company ? I am surprised Exact did not take legal action against this dood for libel/defamation using company's resources.

He got off very lightly, and even boasted about getting another job with an increase of 20 percent salary.

I really pity the new company that hired him.

That lawrence guy also have a hamsap blog containing a collection of his "hamsap sightings".

See this URL quickly:
http://penggaram.0163286699.com/

Now you know he specializes in "these kind of things" and everyone in Exact knows.

You all know why he was "forced to resign"? Basically it was not really due to blogging or due to "customer curious and ask explaination from management" and "Management beh song so wan to get a scapegoat and they found him" as quoted from his blog ...

It's becoz he hamsap some girls colleagues in Exact by asking her what is the color of her underwear today and telling girls of her bra-strap and colors.

Hey Lawrence, u're very lucky Exact did not lodge a police report against you. What u're doing is actually a criminal act of sexual harassment in the workplace. U somemore got the chick to say Exact ill-treated u and threaten ur ex-colleagues?!?!?!

U should post a public apology in ur blog.

Using the company's resources  and time during work hours to attack and defame the company, while on the company's paycheck, is not a very smart thing to do.

It's even dumber to so easily disclose your identity or allow it to be found so easily.

It's dumbest now that the public knows the person was also kicked out because of sexual harassment towards female colleagues.

If you really don't see what's wrong with Lawrence's action, then you are a lost cause.

It does not matter who works for who, for any sane person could see clearly that, using Lawrence as your example of a person who was a victim is more harmful than helpful to your 'jihad' against exact software.

I do not deny many certainly have their rights to be unhappy with Exact should there really be managerial issues, but your spokesperson mr Penggaram is hardly a model employee to represent them.

In fact, he is a potent liability that would discredit the real disgruntled staffs of Exact who suffers injustice.

I suggest you find other spokesperson or examples instead.

Lawrence is hardly a model employee with any credibility.

I like to comment this german guy. He is the big big boss in this company - GM(german monkey). I don't think he contribute to the company. I expect he will bring all his working knowledge like technical or business knowledge to our company and implement it here but I don't see anything. He only know how to bring people in/kick people out, promote manager/demote manager, organization structure and resturcture. That's the only thing he know. Our CEO thought bring him in to transfer knowledge to KL but he only resturucte only. Later he throw all this task to another person hope that the person can do. He don't really spent his time in KL. I don't see he bring any value to our company. Once GM came to KL all sort of thing happen. All manager and director leave because of him. I hope this german monkey will leave us.

That is bad for me as that time i only got 1 year. I never been to a MNC company and i wanted to try as have some nightmare in the private company.

Based on what billytong said, OMG the interviewer said that VB6 is OO? Then what is .NET. But anywhere if got chance i think i also want to try out Exact. Now i also looking for MNC company, is there any?

I would like to give comment about fresh graduate who thinking of applying for Exact.

First:
- I am not an Exact employee
- I apply once few years ago but reject it because I feel it will not help me expand my career

Ok. Some tips to give to fresh ppl:
- Personally, I do not encourage fresh graduate to apply MNC or large company in the early stage of their career. Reason is due to you do not get enough learning experience to help you in your later career. Large company or MNC tends to be more job role specific and rarely will expose you to handle more kind of challenge. If you are thinking to learn more and do not care about salary. go local company or much smaller scale company to get some tough experience. They will provide you more challenge and you will learn a lot. You will learn to appreciate your next job once you go thru a challenging, high pressuare and heavy workload job. But again, for fresh graduate, go for gaining experience first then only think abt salary. Oh, by the way, even if you want to get high pay, staying in one MNC or large company for many years will not help you get high salary. Unless you have a really good academic and you are genius.

- work smart. not just work hard for your work, also learn how to make your work visible to your boss. Many people tend to work hard like hell, but their boss not even see that. You have to understand the boss got no time to look at you working everyday. You going to waste your energy working like that. It only need to take 1 second to impress your boss. Learn about your boss. You will see a lot of people in this thread talking abt shoe polish but I will say this is one of the smart way to work. You cannot say unfair. You have to work clever, your boss got so many staff to evaluate and he/she cannot watch how you do all the time... he/she got his own work as well... So, learn what your boss do and what your boss need, and think what you can give your boss which can help him/her in their job.

- salary. do market survey, like reading information in this thread. Know what market salary you deserve. If you think you can get RM4k, go apply for it. Do not hesitate. Because that is the salary you comfortable with and which you want. You do not want to feel regret later when you join the company. Most of the time, people will feel they asking too much and when come to interview, they step back. This is the time you need to be confident, and learn how to negotiate.

- interview. always... always be confident. Do not fear what they throw at you. Answer all the question in positive way and do not let them feel that you have doubt on any question. You might feel you are being fake to yourself but who care if you can get the job. You are here for the job and not for making friend.

Finally, I just wanna say, all companies got bad management. Bear in mind Exact has a bond for 1.5 year. Think about whether it fit your career planning. Think what you want to be in the next 5 years. Peace. smile.gif

so ... do you guys feel happier now? since MLM king has left and no more 18 months bonding and you can wear casual everyday.

seems the turnover still as great.

It would be better if they could replace HR bit**es cos they rather give you empty promises or not doing anything at all... staffs are transparent to them.... wondering what do they do everyday by sitting down there looking at the screen (well, i m waiting for garytong to shoot me again tongue.gif)

Anyway, i will be leaving soon... so good luck to you all.

Just to tell the management team that you all are giving such a bad impression to outsiders. Imagine the damage hundreds of ex-exact staff have done to Exact. I m sure i will be one of them.

Seem like it's getting worst.

Last friday, five staffs left the company. And more already tender their letter and leaving soon, including managers. Remember there's a say like this, if few staffs leave the company, may be they're problematic staff. But when lots staffs leave the company, sure it's a problematic company.

It's seem like we having lots of nonsense people in the company, like the HR manager that do nothing but just making fool of the staff. And of cause cannot forget to mention the payroll manager that know nothing about how's the payroll of NL run. Especially our main market is NL. Can you imagine our sales person go to the customer ask them to buy our product by saying. "Sir, please buy our payroll, although we not sure how the payroll run, but you will have a great product" haha, what a joke. Please hire me as the CEO then, cause I don't know how to run a company tongue.gif

We are getting the so call "adjustment" sometimes ago. Manager fool us by explaining that's it's because some of our salary not on par with the market. But is this the truth? It's definately not, because you see those that already with high salary get "adjustment" because they're in the high profile module (module that lots people leaving), and for those that the mangement think you not leaving or not even care if you leave, you will not even get a cent. So, for those that not getting "adjustment", you are no value to the company, please leave and empty your space for new comer, the management say.

I must say that there's no career path in the company, for SE, QA, Designer, you can only remain as it is until your manger leave. Because, I crack my brain and still cannot figure out where can you go. With no career path, we work for $$, but because management see that we are over paid, so that's no $$ either.

What's our salary range ? the management told us that, your salary is measure against the average of the local company ! oh my god, please tell me this's not true, because we are international company that making multi million EUR profit a year ! are we overpay ? those that left are getting 20%-30% pay rise, what about that ? even our international collegue are pay much better then us, tell use the truth, don't lie to us. Tell us that you want us because we are cheap !

May be, they're slowing transferring out the development and closing ADC. not even our CEO bother to meet us even he visit ADC. Good bye ADC, may you go in peace.

I strongly agree u mick. If the staff already get the high pay salary, how about those staff already resigned, why they can get 20% -30% high pay rise?

I did hear about this from my friend who works in this company also. They had out source their QA and some developments to their partner, some more got manager resign also. Since it is a good company, why still have many staff leaving, and manager too.

Will this company move thier ADC to other country?
Is it thier business strategy?
Just like what happen in Delf last time. hmm.gif

Currently they are going to change all the staff's PC. Duo core processor, 4gb ram. 160 hard drive. They are what a great company invests on their asset in stead of staff. Because once invest on the staff salary, in future will increase the company's expenses, staffs leave the company, they will loss on their investment. If invest on the assets, staff leaving, the asset still there.

CEO from Delf come to Malaysia visit ADC also didn't meet up with his employee!!!
A bit weird is it?

hr suckssssssssssssssss......... just leave exact for god's sake will you?

u guys are damn right, those with higher pay going higher and higher, those low paid staffs still remain unseen and unnoticed. Dont ever try talking to your manager or HR, they will make ur life 10x more miserable.

married woman non stop flirting with different guys and yet company still counter offer her.... wtf?!??! seems exact cant survive without her. Regardless, i think exact is in the midst of going down to drain.

why some 30 years old SE earning 7k but others same age SE earning 3.5k?

What's the point of getting new pc?

GIVE ME INCREMENT IDIOTSSSS!

Wow... so many people resigned from this company. I did hear about the manager resign also. I know her, she is CY, last time she was in vb team and same team with me, both of us also work as QA. After I left, I heard she get promoted as assistant manager. After restructure, she was joined the .net team. But I heard after she joined the new team, people can't see her performance also, just help up the manager manage the bugs count. Some more she did the functional design also not so complete. Maybe in this company, there have no much improvement for her, so she decided to leave.

After CY left, don't know who will be the next manager? If the company appreciate their staff, they sure will know how to make thier staff to stay. Of cause company can not satify everyone, but at least they will do something to make them happy.

Staff leaving is HR fault?
Is management fault?

Don't justice a book base on the cover. tongue.gif

Disclaimer : I'm not ex-exact staff nor exact staff

If all of the above you guys said is true then it is not the HR fault nor management department. It is the company's system fail.(I'm not talking about the product, I'm refering to the way the company run)

Change the system, change the procedures, structures, change the rules. No system will work forever.

Used to work for Exact before, and it was a good place to learn (but not earn well). This was about 5+ years ago. Then they started promoting idiots to run the company, and that's when it all started to get bad. Yeah, you can fire the HR or the CEO or whomever - but unless the new people come in with idea and strategy, they also doomed for failure.

Want to join Exact? Well, go ahead ... after all, many companies also have problems.

It takes years for a company to establish a good mgmt system. It also require dedicated and commited employee to improve the company mgmt system. Exact is only here in Malaysia for less than 7 years (am I right? blink.gif ). And it has the employee size of MNC / large company. So I think it will takes a few more years to actually make the mgmt system mature.

I think what Exact done in such a short time has been quite good,
- they got their number to fill in the vacancy they need to hire. they need to establish the base here in Malaysia. I think they have done that.
- they manage to come out with competitve salary package for all new hire (not to mix with their increment plan).
- they manage to migrate their development team to Malaysia

Overall, they have accomplish their objective to establish development center in Malaysia.

What they still lack of are:
- a proper career planning / benefit planning for all employee
- an establish core team of top mgmt to lead the company

They start the company in large number and manage to run it for many years... so there is nothing much to complaint about...

Manage a company with around 10-20 employees is different compare to manage companny with hundred of employees.

For those who started the company, their method might not please some party, but I think they are trying the best to establish the company as one... after all, trying to find a way that please hundred of employee is not going to be easy... Peace smile.gif

Actually they have been around longer than that ... if not mistaken, ADC has been around since 1997 or 1998. Having worked there before, I have come to observe one thing about their "management system" - they don't trust the local managers, and the (ex)Dutch managers were running the place like kings.

The employees that they had are pretty good actually. Many of my ex-colleagues from Exact days are now doing great - many have risen to management posts in less than 3 years after leaving Exact. Like I said, Exact is a great place to learn - because it is run like a Chinaman company, so that means you do all the work and clean up all the shit (plus learn about politics along the way).

Are you sure Exact employee do all the work? From what I heard, their job is quite specific to their work function. Previously, I have been working in chinaman-like company but I do not think Exact is anywhere near that...

I heard that from 3 of my friends too. It is quite specific. Fresh grad might be good for stepping stone but it is not a good idea to stay long, he said.

I also used to work in Chinaman company - and when I was in Exact many years back, they used to run like a Chinaman company. They may have changed, but my friends in there tell me its still the same. They may have QA and programmer functions, but I do not think that it's so specific that the programmer just codes. I may be outdated, but this I just checked with my friends less than 1 week ago ...

At least we can agree that the management team there stinks .... flex.gif

Thanks alison619 for your support.
Actually this payroll manager very low profile and smart. He just sit quietly doing nothing so that no one notice him or complaint about him, and safely he pocket in lots of money just by doing nothing. I'm not sure he hamsap or not, but the way he smile you can tell it's so fake. I totally don't understand why the management don't want to give increament to their stuffs, instead they more willing to give to this kind of manager that do nothing.

Just yesterday in train, I overheard couple staffs complaining about their superior officer friend or girl friend who was just recently hired (ard end Feb). Funny thing is after everything I heard about the working environment has improved, still favoritism still happened as this incident these staffs were talking was the salary increment that does not match the work output that was produced.

And they also talked about the particular staff started off quite high salary and now went and demand for an increment of another RM 1500.00. But this particular staff didn't even work to earn that merit as the couple staffs claim.

Did Exact ADC send the employee's March EPF money to KWSP?

A new file has been sent between June 2007 to August 2007 (not sure true or not) by the Accounts Dept.

But then, why is the KWSP replying about the file that is dated to 15/03/2007 and not the latest file?

Yes, all managers are enjoying oversea, not only product manager, but also those unrelated manager like documentation and graphic design (wat the fcuk).

If you got a chance to see those picture they took, you will know that the whole meeting spends lots of $$ to enjoy all the luxury by those foreigner and managers.

While they spend $$ like water, the budget here been cut a lot, even our own employee event we have to organize it in our already crowded office and only to have kuit-kuit and plain water as lunch.

All of our daily expenses increase, but not our salary. we still only able to get a minumun % of increament yearly (if luncky) and which not even on par with the inflation. beside, we don't have any bonus, our chinese new year ang pau of only RM200 been cut, our month happy hour of rm20 been convert to only makan a few piece of kuit.

please, treat us fairly. you saying want to make our benefit on par with the foreigner, we belief you and let you cut our benefit and increament. now we see that foreigner are enjoying much more better benefit then us, show us how you going to change that.

My friends who works oversea always say one thing. in western countries, the salary of one person can support the whole family. in malaysia, to support the whole family, we need all people to work. so, you still want to cut our benefit !!!?? you're sitting high at the top, 1K means nothing to you but it's a matter of live or dead for us !!!

hmmm...this is an interesting web site...from 420 staffs drop to 300....something must be wrong somewhere.... Obviously the Management is not able to motivate the morale of the staff. doh.gif

However, from my experience the younger generation nowadays could not stand the pressure. As soon as they feel the heat, they will jump to another company, and the worst thing is those colleagues seeing their friends leaving, they will also follow, its like a virus affecting the whole company... rclxub.gif

trim down? Why increase in the 1st place. See this is the result when the company did not have a clear direction what they want to do.... I would not blame the staffs for leaving as they do not see job security in the company. wink.gif

Exact in KLCC is a development centre. Hence, Exact ADC (Asia development centre)

while, the Midvalley office is where the sales office is situated, inclusive of the call centre

both are under the same umbrella smile.gif

I ll give it a try at Exact ADC. Nice location. Good company.

The managing director's name is Henry or Hendry. Chinese man.

Can anybody provide me with his full name or e-mail address.

Since their HR department sucks, better write a direct e-mail to them.

Saves a lot of time.

Also at the same time, apparently one lady head of department is so picky till she doesnt even know what type of candidate she is looking for because when my friend ask her what background is she looking for, the lady diverted his question to some other questions.my friend went for a manager's position to interview somore...what a shame
I wanted to apply as a SE also scared o....

i have another friend also went interview as engineer also says the interview question -keng ar..like want to hire what manager like that

I also hear internal management very political and messy and their benefis very bad now compare to 5-6 years back

emm... what can I say..haizz...

I thought i've seen the worst previously until i see current one.

If the goal of previous head is to downsize the company, he succeeded by forcing lots of talented ppl to resign. So what are the mission of current management, to shutdown Exact ADC ? yes may be, I've seen lots of level been created, to protect those far on the top. I've seen lots of talk but no work ppl been place in high position, so that those at lower level have chance to work like hell. I've seen the all benefits been cut, so that every penny can be save to pay the ridicules salary of those high on top. I've seen nonsence instruction been given by top management, while they do not know anything about the system. If this is the progressive way to shutdown a company, i forseen its success.

I have a friend in there too. He said the situation has gone from bad to worse lately. The German director balik kampung, so called 'resigned' lah. Then this new one makan the place and all of the sudden promoted few managers. This is the best part. Those promoted one apparently are young leaves. What can these young leaves do other than bcome YES-MAN and YES-LADY?? He also said company are having cut cost thingy so increment and bonus can only appear in dreams. But then, managers from all over the world flew off to Germany having vacation. Their flight, accomodation etc is sponsored by the employee's bonus already. Pathetic huh?

My friend, in such tough economic situation, it obvious there is no possibility of paying bonus. Just think abit, is holding an event more expensive than paying bonuses?

What is the cost of holding events in a hotel ...? probably about 10- 20K.. depending on what event.
What is the cost of paying bonuses for a staff force of lets say about 250 staff excluding top management .. ??
do some maths ....

average pay of IT staff RM 4000
staff force 250 people
total staff force pay (RM4000 x 250) =RM1,000,000.
So it will cost RM 1 million to pay 1 month bonus
Even half month would be RM 1/2 million.

Anyway bonus is not a right, you have to earn it. NO free lunch here.

No MNC in their right mind would be paying RM1 million just to keep the staff happy.
Be greatful that you still have a job to go back to.

Reading this forum and what I can see is this place is full of ungreatful and unreasonable staff.

You can take your chances.
The company I work for now is AU based and they are moving / "outsourcing" the work from AU to KL. So no more jobs in AU. Globalisation mah. Yah the pay in AU may be good compare to KL but dont know how long that can last..

In current economic situation, Global company will cut cost and it does not matter if they cut jobs . That why Exact's have such a big center here!! They move the whole development to KL !!

So try your luck loh in AU.. In bad time, foreigner will be the 1st to go...... cry.gif

I met my friend who worked in Exact last weekend. She told me there are many things happened in last 3 months. The Director has left the company, and another senior manager is leaving too. It looks chaos nowaday.
I heard there are also many unprofessional issues related to HR, the HR manager having big fight with another manager and staff loudly, new staffs joined the company without getting the medical card after two months, and more... :x

Hi AcePeh, thanks for the feedback.  Is it referring to sales dept or otherwise?  Oh gosh, if it is really unprofessionalism environment, what else more the new staff is not getting?  I appreciate the feedback in the sales division .....  pls help.

Another 'joke' that my friend told me today.... a HR personnel contacted a candidate who is applying a job in her company, the conversation between two of them was something like this....
HR: .... what is your expected salary?
XX: .... my expected salary is RMxxxx.
HR: WOW, so expensive, sure get rejected one, you better reduce another RM500 .....
XX: <pengsan><#@!$%^>

BTW, my friend works in software development center, there is no sales department there. She told me there is another Exact office at MidValley, but lately there are many people left the company too. I guess the situation is more or less the same.

One of the most frequent things I hear from my friends is that “HR is useless”. Here is why...
In other words, they brought their concerns and issues to the attention of the HR manager, and the response was less than helpful, and perhaps even made the situation worse. It is very common no response from HR via emails, or rather the HR manager would give you all kind of excuses and tell you... 'I'm very busy...', 'I got so many things to do....', 'I don't have time....', 'I don't know how to do it...'. It is really like "a burden on the backs of the productive workers" since most people found HR is irresponsible, unprofessional, unfriendly and useless..... They rather figure out to settle an HR issue themself instead of waiting ages for HR to attend to the issue.

Worse still, the HR manager hides in the room=cabin with the door closed, and NO interaction with the staffs everyday. Guess she only get out from the cabin when she goes for lunch or 'shi-shi'. Just to give you an idea how much she knows about Exact... she could even loudly mis-introduced the department to candidates who came for interview, in front of a bunch of people!! It's really kind of joke/sham for a multinational company likes Exact. HR is so wrapped up in politics and diversity programs they have no interest or time for employees, it merely view employees with contempt. Most people try to avoid HR like the plague, this already give you a better picture about the situation there.

My friend just told me that her Apr and May (Jun??) EPF contributions went ‘missing’ in EPF statement, and the same thing happened to all her colleagues. What really disappointed her was, there is no update/explanation from HR about this issue, untill they found out themselves when they checked the EPF statement.

My 1 year and 1 month working experience in Exact with the position of FSS. Yeah, all the colleagues are friendly and nice, I don't even want to resign when i joined this company. But unfortunately i got retrenched due to my position has been redundant.

previously, i was with payroll team, im doing APAC PTI calculation and also payroll for APAC countries, but then few months ago, PTI calculation has been transferred back to NL and my other team mates has nothing to do already. So my on hand job task has transferred to them and i've became jobless. Because according to the rules "last in first out", they gotta retrenched me instead of 2 others old employee that work longer than me.

On November 2011, i got this bad news from my direct superior, and they leave me 3 months in order for me to handover my job task to other colleagues. So on January, my division director get to know about my situation and he ask me to stay until March when he visit to KL Exact.

And during that period, i got transferred to another team which is Reporting team. And on that particular month, i'm doing totally different job task and i got no problem at all. Just some of the accounting basic i do not understand but i think it's not a big deal if i willing to learn, isn't it?

then on March, the director came, and review my job performance. Well, shouldn't said review my job performance, should be my judgement date. Unfortunately, my fate still the same, i still have to leave Exact.

The reason they giving me is because i do no have Finance background! What the hell? From the very beginning they hired me, they've already know that i got no finance background. Then when they retrenched me that time, what for they still want to keep me? And leave me for nothing? I've rejected a few job vacancies due to i really hope to stay in Exact. I told this to my division director and you know how he answered me? He said, "I'm sorry, i wanted to convince myself to get you stay in Exact, but you really don't have any finance background and there's no available position for you in Exact.". I was like, omg??? Are you trying to be a good man? Showing others that you have did something good? Get me to stay in Exact for another one month? Then told everyone that after a month of evaluation, I still couldn't handle anything or there is no available position for me? LOL...

I joined Exact on 14th February 2011, after six months of probation, they said i have not meet their expectation and wanted to extend 3 more months of my probation period, which mean extended to Oct/Nov2011, then on Nov2011, i'm happily waiting for my confirmation result but end up what i got is bad news, i got retrenched. They after 2 months of handover, then they ask me to stay until further notice because my division director don't wish any of us leaving Exact. LOL? Giving me hope again! Then.... another 2 months gone... What?!! I still have to leave!!

What a special experience i gained in Exact ADC! Bravo!!

Hope > Disappointment... then Hope > again, disappointment!!

wow... what a read. After 14 pages. I'm in no way connected to Exact but what interest me is that, suddenly for the last 1 year my company has more than 10 Exact employees recruited and their attitude is all the same. Some sort of, same mentality, same attitude. That what makes me wonder why we have so many people with the same mentality with the same attitude in my current company and which explains why smile.gif
Anyway if what had been complained here is true, i'm really sorry for you guys. There are more than 100 MNCs doing IT here in Malaysia and hopefully that you manage to catch a good one smile.gif

I would like to give comment about fresh graduate who thinking of applying for Exact.

First:
- I am not an Exact employee
- I apply once few years ago but reject it because I feel it will not help me expand my career

Ok. Some tips to give to fresh ppl:
- Personally, I do not encourage fresh graduate to apply MNC or large company in the early stage of their career. Reason is due to you do not get enough learning experience to help you in your later career. Large company or MNC tends to be more job role specific and rarely will expose you to handle more kind of challenge. If you are thinking to learn more and do not care about salary. go local company or much smaller scale company to get some tough experience. They will provide you more challenge and you will learn a lot. You will learn to appreciate your next job once you go thru a challenging, high pressuare and heavy workload job. But again, for fresh graduate, go for gaining experience first then only think abt salary. Oh, by the way, even if you want to get high pay, staying in one MNC or large company for many years will not help you get high salary. Unless you have a really good academic and you are genius.

- work smart. not just work hard for your work, also learn how to make your work visible to your boss. Many people tend to work hard like hell, but their boss not even see that. You have to understand the boss got no time to look at you working everyday. You going to waste your energy working like that. It only need to take 1 second to impress your boss. Learn about your boss. You will see a lot of people in this thread talking abt shoe polish but I will say this is one of the smart way to work. You cannot say unfair. You have to work clever, your boss got so many staff to evaluate and he/she cannot watch how you do all the time... he/she got his own work as well... So, learn what your boss do and what your boss need, and think what you can give your boss which can help him/her in their job.

- salary. do market survey, like reading information in this thread. Know what market salary you deserve. If you think you can get RM4k, go apply for it. Do not hesitate. Because that is the salary you comfortable with and which you want. You do not want to feel regret later when you join the company. Most of the time, people will feel they asking too much and when come to interview, they step back. This is the time you need to be confident, and learn how to negotiate.

- interview. always... always be confident. Do not fear what they throw at you. Answer all the question in positive way and do not let them feel that you have doubt on any question. You might feel you are being fake to yourself but who care if you can get the job. You are here for the job and not for making friend.

Finally, I just wanna say, all companies got bad management. Bear in mind Exact has a bond for 1.5 year. Think about whether it fit your career planning. Think what you want to be in the next 5 years. Peace.  smile.gif

Hey, what was wrong with you? Did the HR Manager stepped on your tail! Got to know from few friends working in Exact ADC, the HR Manager was a reasonable person. This is a HR Dept and HR office is normally close up because of handling confidential matters. Please try to understand. Do simply "tembang" only. Do you expect a HR Dept staff sitting outside a common area talking about confidential matters! Common lah!

Different people have different opinions about everything, some are good some are bad, I guess all companies will have these things, no company can escape this, especially big company like Exact with so many employees.

Some says good things about Exact, some says bad things, so which one you believe? And people who respond to this thread does not represent all employees from Exact.

Hi guy, I have been invited for interview for a VB6 software Engineer position. Although I have VB background and working more than 5 years experience in VB, in fact my company which is semiconductor company also require VB programming for test program. However, I am from Electrical and Electronic background and I have 5 years experience in semiconductor industry but not IT industry.

But I quite surprise they still call me for an interview because I am not IT background but I wish to apply this job because it is using VB6.

The only things I concern:

1. Working environment

2.I never join IT company interview before, how is their interview look like?

If you are planning to go into FINANCE DEPARTMENT which is the shared service centre, you are really making a great mistake.

There were 3 team leads left the company and their effort was not appreciated. To make it worst, none of the Finance department are qualified auntants or degree holders.

Most of them are nuts and dont know the manner respecting each other. What I mean was, they b**** about everyone and it becomes, the daily routine.

Especially, the so called team lead for Order to Cash is the head of the b****ing team. She only wear mini skirt but her size is like mini elephant. She even slept with regional finance director's son in order to get the promotion. She b****ed about many staff and made quality staff to resign.

The finance director is damn egoistic. He never accept his mistake and don't even ask sorry. His adament and racist remarks made quality staffs to leave.

Can u imagine, a new staff joined just for 2 days and thereafter ran away from the company.

The company is in heavy restructuring, thus they are going on cost cutting. The bonus is just 1 week. So phatetic.

The staff dont know proper english and qualifications are diploma n partial qualifications.

So if u feel u can take up b****ing abt yourself n people speak behind you with paying peanuts, you may join this company.

The real benefit is, free flow of soft drinks and gym facilities. AND girls can wear mini skirt and transparent shirt to work.

For finance staff, dont expect for career developement here as people here dont go out of their confort zone. There's no more MSC status for this company as their tenure has expired and their sales has been dropping.

I feel sorry for PipuPipu's comment above, as nobody understood her feelings.

Summary: This company is for idiots, nuts, crappy director, b****ing people and egoist.

Exact is now expanding their business by developing a new product. Because of this, they need to inject headcount to run the operation.

If you consider to change your current job, I will say you may give a try in Exact. They are now very focusing on staff benefit.

Yes, that'sright.
A lot of thing happened previously and I believe most of the company also having the same issue before.
But anyhow this company had run a changed on the management level and things became more mature at this moment.

The new office in G-Tower is located at 8th floor, environment is nice and we have over 300+ staff at this moment.
If you join as SE, you may gain a lot of experience from the training as well as the strong of OO implementation.

I wonder did Exact pay u write this ? or you just new in Exact ?

There are a few things i must say about Exact,
- Almost every single one of the employees (except the big shots) are getting paid under market value.
- No contractual bonus.
- Incentives depends on sales. Sales drop you get nothing. But usually u get nothing.
- Low increment. 1.8 - 4 % max. If they like you might get 5.
- Heavy politics. You will see many "taichi" players in emails. These guys like abusing authority, putting blame on others to make themselves look good. etc
- Some really bad leaders (managers), most are a**holes, who trust other ppl more than trust their own subordinates. No appreciation/praise given whatsoever for his subordinates work done but only criticism, resulting highly demotivated employees because of these a**holes.
- Work life is not balance at all. Some of them need to come back or work from home in weekends to complete the work.
- Promotion. 6 - 9 %, depends how much your manager like you. If they don't, you probably get lower than usual.
At that moment, you will ask yourself, what kind of shitty promotion is this ?!, I worked my ass off and this is the reward i get?!
Then the pain will come along. After a while, you find urself flipping through jobstreet updating ur resume. thumbup.gif

The place now is so packed and is getting too crowed because they keep hiring but many ppl are leaving too.

Birthday celebration held in pantry which is a pain. The pantry is simply too small to accommodate 200+ ppl inside,
which is stupid. doh.gif

If you guys wanna join in better think twice.

already attend for the intvw last time but not selected. for me which have attend many intvw, exact is look more better than malay company.

I got bad experienced attend interview with malay company. normally they call people for interview just make sure there have enough candidate to select and not checked the background of the candidate.

let say the position required someone that have web experienced, but for me that dont have any web experienced also called. of course i will waste my time because i need to compete other candidate that have web experienced. if they already state need the experienced one, just call the experienced one. easy. no need to waste other people time and energy.

- Low increment. 1.8 - 4 % max. If they like you might get 5.

Well, I believe politics happened every where. it depends on how you take it. If you think you are not suitable in politics environment, then maybe you should consider to build your own business with only yourself in the company.

I believe most of the corporate having the same issue, but at least I feel exact is still consider healthy and moving well company.

Be mature !!!

Facts are facts. But please do not mislead others with your shallow information. (I assume you're new).
Go around and ask the ppl been there for years about the remunerations and politics.

I've attended job interview with Exact and is now slotted for 2nd one. My friend had left in 2010, advising me against it. Now I see the user stories in forum are quite mixed.

How's the Exact work environment currently? I'm not inclined to the politics, just the tasks, OT, and increments.

One of my friend worked in Exact software company and the comapany judge the staff increment by a graph or something, and this is not fair to all the staff, because of this graph thing those low pay staff, don't have chance to get high increment, and those old staff or should I called Senior, get very high increment, this is because Senior knew more about the products, but this cannot compare among senior and junior staff, really unfair.Low pay still low pay, and high pay will get even higher pay.

redbullHulk - are you still working in Exact? If you are so bitter, why are you still there? Kenot find job outside? I pity you.... a job is just a job. Some people have positive experience working and will grow in their career. It all depends on your work attitude. So, if you are angry - that is your problem, and if you are an old timer, angry with the system, kenot find job outside - then - you are the pathetic one. I kesian you! Do yourself a favor - find a new job! Don complain about money, just do something for your life., find a new job that pay more.... what a coward. doh.gif

Too many positive things along my life in this company, of course they were some inevitable negative things, I also fully understand decisions always couldn't made to please everyone (200-300 staff), there is for sure. Overall, a good company that I would encourage everyone to consider it. I always ask myself what can I contribute rather than ask what can I gain, comparing is always a never ending story. If u think u deserve more then just justify why u deserve it, cannot get it just leave it and look for alternative. Making noise in the forum would not help u much, spend more time to read books would be ideal.

What is experienced senior developer? This answer is very subjective. I would say the range is fair to majority... if you think you are competent enough, should not care about the senior range, care more about the range after senior level.

I always believe if anyone could stay focus, hate to do things twice and improve via automation, embrace efficiency... then work life always not balance (life>work in this case). New joiner to a company, unless you are super smart, otherwise it's not harmful at all to stay a bit late to adapt and learn, fit in yourself to the env and product asap. Don forget we are living in the competitive world.

hi hon,
i am not working in exact but i have a friend who is working there (hence myanonymity tongue.gif).. there is what is shared

the colleagues there are very friendly and the company does encourage/promote work life balance.. and normally those who stay late are the ones who by their own initiative choose to give extra smile.gif which is nice smile.gif .. yearly salary adjustment is nothing to shout about but when u get promoted there would be a huge jump smile.gif or some manager would actually fight for a nice increment for you... for bonus, dont expect much as the last past few years there are none, fortunately for them last year they got at least half a week tongue.gif.. this is due to Exact is a public listed company and majority of their profit goes to the shareholder.. but things might be brighter as it was recently privatized.. smile.gif

On R&R, this company is quite good, social nites every quarter, Annual dinner with mouth watering lucky draw prices. at least 3D2N team building to islands

... politics, i would say every company will have it..but not as bad as the company i am working smile.gif (mine you need to stay on your toes like eveytime :'( )... there are questionable promotions....some juicy gossips about extra-marital affair between a manager and a staff ahem ahem cough cough tongue.gif ...

well politics aside, my friend seems contented there smile.gif ..

wish you all the luck hon.. xoxo to you too

p.s. Well my friend might be naive, but at least he is naively happy lol

I'm neutral, but telling the truth.
It has got the best environment/equipment for u, but it has got the worst manager telling you to follow their shit-plan.

It has got some of the best smart ideas, but it has got a lot dumb head seniors & managers who scrap it (they understand only "IF i do not understand it THEN it's a piece of junk END IF").

It has got the best process/procedure for software development but it has got the No-Ball'est manager to deliver junk code (well they are hired just to say "Yes it can be done" or "Yes it's a brilliant idea" + some tail-shaking to their bosses)

If u wan a place to get ready for retirement, and if you can talk well, and if you have a good brush, and if you do smoke and finally if you wana work in KLCC, your skill in software engineering doesnt matter, go ahead and you'll probably hv a great future.

Conclusion, great company + superb dump manager (in KLCC) = God Bless U

Trust me, this is the geniune (120%) experience of me, no xtra but ony less (only the most important problem here). Thing like bonus, i dun reali giv a shit (IF it's a great place to work)  thumbup.gif
*
not only the managers, the normal staff also cocky type wat...but again, when I see such staff, I thought these kind of people with this kind of attitude deserve to be in such company biggrin.gif

typical Chinese working in KL attitude...with one look, u know that guy got no substance.

If you are planning to go into FINANCE DEPARTMENT which is the shared service centre, you are really making a great mistake.

There were 3 team leads left the company and their effort was not appreciated. To make it worst, none of the Finance department are qualified auntants or degree holders.

Most of them are nuts and dont know the manner respecting each other. What I mean was, they b**** about everyone and it becomes, the daily routine.

Especially, the so called team lead for Order to Cash is the head of the b****ing team. She only wear mini skirt but her size is like mini elephant. She even slept with regional finance director's son in order to get the promotion. She b****ed about many staff and made quality staff to resign.

The finance director is damn egoistic. He never accept his mistake and don't even ask sorry. His adament and racist remarks made quality staffs to leave.

Can u imagine, a new staff joined just for 2 days and thereafter ran away from the company.

The company is in heavy restructuring, thus they are going on cost cutting. The bonus is just 1 week. So phatetic.

The staff dont know proper english and qualifications are diploma n partial qualifications.

So if u feel u can take up b****ing abt yourself n people speak behind you with paying peanuts, you may join this company.

The real benefit is, free flow of soft drinks and gym facilities. AND girls can wear mini skirt and transparent shirt to work.

For finance staff, dont expect for career developement here as people here dont go out of their confort zone. There's no more MSC status for this company as their tenure has expired and their sales has been dropping.

I feel sorry for PipuPipu's comment above, as nobody understood her feelings.

Summary: This company is for idiots, nuts, crappy director, b****ing people and egoist.
*
have u ever heard, birds of a feather flock together ? I highly doubt that that bitch is the only one. Im sure the others behave that way as well, sorry to say that...it's just it takes time for each other to recognized everyone is actually that way, just that everyone is egoistic to admit they are like that (ok maybe not all but majority)

are u serious ? I think u need to redefine your definition of mature...but again, 1 thing which is for sure, the people who are working inside deserve what exact is giving them. working in such environment, yet outside behave so cocky ? im just laughing at the back....they deserve the total package.
