Dear friends,

Need ur info on CSC (subsidary of CSA) working for Maybank project under Operation team, how the working environment there? Need to know the good and bad experiences working for maybank project?
Heard it very stressfull, is it right?

heard from my fren the turnover quite high in Maybank ... many missed SLAs ......

Anybody can share your experience ...or your friend..friend experience with this company??

It's normal to have that kind of environment especially in banking. The only stressfull stuff working in this kind environment is if you keep making the same mistake many times & never learn from it. Technology change fast and you need to learn and pick up new things fast.

Dont listen to rumour related to CSC / Maybank. They may not fit to that environment but you may. Being positive and eager to learn is the way to survive. Dont expect the company to change to suit you - you have to change to suit the env.

may i know which team that you have joined?

Operation team ... how much the basic and any special requirement ?

Im from helpdesk here ...

Data Center Operation for Maybank Project - Wintel

who is your immediate boss?

Nobody from CSC Operation team???
Share ur experience in CSC please?

Correction, CSC is NOT a subsidiary of CSA...it should be the other way round.

I was in the project for 2 years. There's been a few changes this past year. That's what I've heard from my former colleagues there. Can you tell us the your manager?

Yeah.. I just got a call from one of the CSC Manager... I can choose either to go in suppot team, operation team (data center) or project team. no allowance just a stanby allowance RM150 a week and the performance bonus around 1.5 month depend on performances.... Dunno either to accept or not... still confude right now...
About the manager name ...I think is not good for me to mention any name here..

what about for the base salary?need to work on shift?

Base Salary....??? quite good also...as Senior System Engineer only...no need to work shift...just normal office hours but need to do the stanby..

This thread has not been updated since Nov last year, but I just got an offer from CSA. Database Administrator support for one of their client. Anyone has any idea what would be the working culture and environment in that team?
I don't think there will be any contractual bonus or allowance, any advice?

Thanks.

...as long as not work as helpdesk in ACC in the Enterprise division, should be ok. The ACC dept of their Enterprise division is a jinx.

Poor mgmt, was hired as team lead previously in their ACC.

Was hired to replace the previous Team lead, who's transfered to other dept.

Inherited several team full of issue and problem Attempted to fix the issue but always get interference from previous Team lead, seems to like to interfere my work.

Multiple employees disciplinary issue stemming from poor action from mgmt.

My advice to the mgmt, fix the problem where it lies, and not create more problem and finger pointing culture should stop as well.

If not, the problem will forever be there.

If you hire a team lead, put your trust and gave authority for the lead to carry out work. Staff disciplinary issue are high in the ACC. Will not go away by closing one eye, please take action instead.

CSC, CSA. Wow, very old names in the IT world.
