I'm just wondering if anyone know what the company is all about and how working with them is like?
Thanks in advance.

i dont want to scared u la .. but this is what my friend told me after he join the company as project manager -

He want to comeback to his old company. Enough said.

Oh Geez! that bad? OMG OMG.....!!!!

Waaaa...that bad meh..Im in the midst to interview there woh.

I think it's best to judge on your own when you two go for interview... sometimes the expectation varies from one another. Staff A may be able to accept the work culture of the company but staff B may not. So the best bet is always be your own judge.

any specific comments on the working environment?

just wonder if actually anyone currently working there can advice on how the company culture looks like.

I signed the offer letter for customer engineer for CIMB project and will start to work there on 1st Sep

Last time also got interview there. Its a bit special because my interview is at Old Town White Coffee..They said i will do helpdesk analyst and sumtimes will do part of support engineer job..takes me a few days to think either to accept or decline..

Dear lamode,

CIMB you said? Good luck on that. See you back in the forums after 3 months!

mind to clarify more?

what does u mean by this? i am on the same position as well just went through the interview.

Let's just say that it is a problematic account to the core. Teams have led this project before you and have since left, and I believe with or without you, your team won't be the last either. They have been trying to solve some ermmm... integrity problems since 2007. Referring to both parties by the way. I'll have to side with the client though, regardless of how difficult CIMB can be. I mean, customers pay to get service, am I right?

really think that the turnover really hight..
last may they offered me helpdesk analyst..after reject it..maybe they got somebody else..but now the post appeared again on jobstreet..

Yep ziranath, ahem ahem is currently in big trouble. No doubt they have secured a major contract recently, but frankly, that only serves to slow down their demise. Even with the major contract on hand, it's still a zero sum game. When the orders come in, you will still have to produce the headcount to manage the manpower requirements. How will the company be able to handle 10 service calls with only 4 technicians?

Imagine that.

Lucky for you

Since you have such a good view and in depth knowledge of CIMB and Dataprep, are you an ex-staff?
Otherwise how would you know?

There are many scenarios in a project. Were you a manager in Dataprep before?

You have your rights to your own views, but since you were not the Project Manager or any manager in the company (i assume), then i think you are not at the liberty to comment.

As to the rest, why the hiring continues is probably due to manpower requirements and additional engagements.

Trust what you see within your own eyes.
Its your career.
Its only losers and non-performers that complain.

How do i know so much about dataprep, PM me, and I'll let you know.

i just would like, if you have another offer, please let this offer go

They are still using old system to manage the team and also the management team is very poor of skills to manage the people who make profit for the company

if you are be appointing as a customer, field or technician, please think twice

the field position is not covered by zone, if you have call in Shah alam in the morning, you also can have another call in wangsa maju after that

agree on it. but somehow some co still using old system like Office 97...Novell old version..


what to do..they feel all those PC not important to run the biz..

encounter before the Snr a bit unknown..ask him what he wil lsmile with u and simply give u answer..later u found out wrong question him again..he say is it..no idea..

lol.. glad i dint joined. But technically, i joined for like.. um 4 - 5 days.

i just wonder......how many of u r star achievers

This company really sucks...
Better run for your life!
