I worked for 6 companies over 8 years. For nearly 9 years after that, I worked in the best company, rising from a junior executive to senior management. This was when I thankfully joined Capital Dynamics.

In all my 9 years, I was trained intensively and extensively by the company. I was given opportunities that I never knew existed. There were very motivating.  The rewards and benefits at Capital Dynamics were very generous and trust me, they were very unique as well.

Not only is there no office politics, Capital Dynamics does not believe in and does not practise OT.  Not a single staff is asked to do OT. The culture in CD is very results-based. If you can produce the results by the agreed deadline, you are free to go whenever. What OT? You manage yourself responsibly. If you have to stay back after office hours to finish your work on time, shouldn’t you?

The culture in CD is also very caring. Capital Dynamics is under the “Essential Services” category. It has to stay open at all times, just like Bursa Malaysia. In order that its staff stay safe and still meet the legal obligations under Essential Services, staff are provided breakfast and lunch every day all paid for the company. They can also choose various working times to avoid congested public transport or jams. Wow, these are so much better than some of the larger companies.

The culture at Capital Dynamics is very empowering for all staff – no micromanaging for sure (for the less experienced ones, do not confused between regulatory compliance with micromanaging). For example, the staff can wear whatever they find suitable. They can nap any time for whatever length of time they choose to. In the pantry, they can play ping-pong, watch tv or play the piano – anytime the staff chooses to.

Despite his huge success, the CEO of CD is very humble, compassionate, extremely generous and an unusually sincere person. Wise, funny, open-minded, TTB is actually a patient teacher to his staff rather than a CEO of a company. Is he perfect? No, he is human after all, but after 9 long and rewarding years in Capital Dynamics, I find him to be a wonderful human being. Unlike my previous bosses, TTB respects all his staff. Even though he is a very senior CEO, he is willing to listen to our opinions and ideas.

Why did I leave? The irony for TTB and Capital Dynamics is that they nurtured me so bloody well that the larger and richer financial institutions headhunted me like a gem. But my million thanks to TTB and Capital Dynamics for the best 9 years.

Why I am posting this in this LowYat forum? I see few positive comments about TTB and Capital Dynamics in LowYat. This is not the true situation and unfair to them. After nearly 9 years, I can safely say I know TTB and Capital Dynamics inside out and is therefore in an excellent position to portray the true picture.  For those who want to genuinely know more, give me either your email or phone contact.
