Thanks limsk,

Are you working at Manulife also?

How is the workload there? is it required frequent travel to oversea? mostly which countries?

I got offers from Accenture, ACS and Manulife. I had went thru the forbes, Manulife rank 9x and accenture is 418, ACS is 1010, Seemed like Manulife is a very big companies, what made them different is that accenture & ACS are BPO, but Manulife is not, am i right limsk.

Thanks for the advises.

I'm in one of the company that is supporting MIL Hong Kong. I must say, these people are hardcore to the max if you talk about work. But some support in MIL HK are quite pushy/rude. Encountered one already last month, gave her the piece of my mind and since she didn't say a word to me smile.gif

Workload varies - those doing support would be less busy then those actively working on projects, especially close to project deadlines.
May I know until what extent will the workload be for those who work on projects? Is overtime working hour expected for most of the time?

Thanks.

Hi, based on all the posts I read here..
Can I say the programmer job here is more towards project driven?
Is it a good place to learn new skills and is freedom of speech a practice here?
What are normal working hours and is there any flexi hour practice in the company?
Thanks.
