    Pros

    Visionary, risk-taking leadership, fantastic corporate culture with a 'we can achieve anything' feeling throughout the company. Career progression is good for those who have the drive to succeed. Flat management structure, minimal bureaucracy. Beautiful new corporate HQ in KL that has to be seen to be believed.

    Cons

    Always on call. There are a very small number of people among the senior management who should be moved out as they lack management ability and only allowed to remain due to loyalty. Salaries are low, well below industry standard, this is a problem against a backdrop of rising consumer prices. Due to low salaries, many junior staff use it as a jumping off point to something better.
