PLEASE DO NOT JOIN THIS COMPANY. why?

1. pay is not competitive at all
> pay you peanuts but expect you to work like dog.

2. working hours are long and strenuous (over public holidays and weekends) and no OT pay
> no off-day in lieu even if you work on public holidays and weekends.

3. biased treatment by management
> leng luis are treated better and shouted at less
> autocratic style of management. not encouraged to voice out. like the japanese saying, 'the nail that sticks out gets hammered down'.

4. lack of appreciation
> china-man style of management will not appreciate your work but will shout at you (no give face wan) if you make any mistakes. vmad.gif

5. mobile phones are not allowed during office hours
> you deposit your phone into a box when you clock-in and can only retrieve it when you clock-out. not even during lunch time you can use your mobile. reason? they say you handle sensitive info, thats why cannot use mobile lor.

6. use your chinese name
> for chinese, not allowed to use your christian name. e.g john wong ah kau. you cannot be known as 'john' here in capital dynamics. must be 'ah kau' ok? good dog.

7. language
> allowed to speak only in english. cannot speak in mandarin, tamil, melayu or cantonese etc. reason? this is a 'global' company hence only can use english. like lord of the rings, 'one language to rule them all'.

8. attire
> for ladies, not allowed to wear pants or flat shoes. only skirt and high-heel shoes. reason? you guess and see.. brows.gif

9. job scope
> due to high staff turnover rate, there is always shortage of manpower. so you will thrown work that is totally unrelated to your job scope from time to time. be prepared!

10. medical
> sometimes can claim, sometimes cannot.

11. probation
> 6 month probation. if they are not satisfied with your performance, will defer your confirmation.

12. notice period
> during probation, termination notice is 1 month. upon confirmation, termination notice is *gasp* 2 months!

the purpose of this post is just to share with all who are considering to join this company. if you are ok with all these, by all means pls go ahead. otherwise, don't. cuz i heard even the coo (chief operating officer) who has been with them 10 years has already left..
