Pros

Friendly and supportive staff who work together to ensure a fun working environment to make it less stressful.

Cons

This is actually a contractor company. At first I was given the impression that this was a design studio but most works given were on construction basis. Not suitable for design growth and development. Projects are large but mostly constructing them. So I don’t get to practice much architectural interior works. Also company clearly mention verbally they will not follow the law in paying overtime for salaries under 4k. Unsure why but we were instructed to work overtime when needed to.

Pros

• My direct supervisor was kind, patient, and genuinely supportive. She took time to explain tasks clearly and treated me with respect. - The internship offered exposure to technical drawings and documentation, which was useful for learning. - I would say nothing is worth the amount of trauma you get from this place.

Cons

• The workload was extremely heavy for an intern, especially considering the allowance. Interns were often given tedious, detail-heavy tasks that should not have been assigned to someone in a learning position. • The company employs a very large number of interns (around 30), which creates an environment that feels more like cheap labour than structured training. • The allowance was very low, and deductions were made for sick or emergency leave. This was demoralising and financially stressful, especially since interns are already struggling to cover daily expenses. • Some staff members were unprofessional in the way they communicated with interns. I personally experienced being spoken to in a rude, commanding manner, which caused significant anxiety and stress. • Interns were often expected to prioritise company tasks over academic responsibilities, even though internships are part of an educational requirement. • There was a general feeling of being taken for granted—interns who performed well were simply given more work rather than proper guidance or appreciation. -My allowance got deducted even despite sending an official notice for a leave from my university for a final presentation. -Not only that, even permanent staff doesn't get OT. They handle multiple projects with barely enough people to handle it. It's ridiculous.

Pros

Not sure. Let me think They try their best to be the best. Their senior staff know how to 'kipas' their bos.

Cons

No quality of staff No sop Need to learn everything by yourself. No one will guide you. For intern. They will do all the full time job 200% without guide. No overtime even your salary below RM4000 No high salary Not good in management Not good in manage their goods
