Did Internship @ Top Glove @ Setia Alam factory as Chem Eng. student too several years ago. To sum things up there, it's a relatively tough internship environment - it's very Chinaman so expect strict workplace rules.

1. Cannot be late at all - they use thumbprint system to mark attendance. Potong salary if late sweat.gif
2. Working environment - expect to sweat a lot, smell chemicals (some can sting your eyes/nose) every now and then, be in close proximity to moving machines, etc.
3. Parking/Food - Can park near factory area, eating either drive outside (but must come back on time), or eat at canteen
4. Have to work alternate Saturdays (forgot time, but i think half day)

tl;dr - think of it positively and you can learn lots. It's really just another working experience to show you a very Chinaman cultured manufacturing working environment

Can't remember much but feel free to ask if you got any other questions.

Hi thx for d replies.  For top glove this looks scary, and i heard some bad stories about them.  And especially being chinaman company with no system Im also sked.  My fren last time interns in top glove. Very good allowance but most of the time stuck in lab doing the same thing over and over again.  when finish nothing to do, just sit down in the production office but must at least pretend to do somthing, like thinking how to cut cost or sumthing.  hartalega i heard oso but is too far for me so not consider. 

My choice is envitech engineering but anyone know they pay how much for allowance?  Boss strict onot?  izit chinaman like top glove?  their video looks interesting, it seems the interns handles many many engineering projects which might be good for my future.  looks happening and very adventurous.  but in their video they say they ban certain certain uni, then i check my fren brother is in UCSI (another is UTP), He and his frens all also got banned from this company.  Anyone know why?  Quite worried cuz internship coming up soon.

thx and sorry sorry for my poor english.

As some other forumers suggested, just "be a sponge" and absorb everything that is thrown at you. Just always aim to make the best out of your existing situation and you'll thrive no matter where you do your internship.

That said, if your heart desires Envitech then by all means go for it regardless of the allowance. You'll thank yourself for it biggrin.gif
