Pros

No pros. Only hybrid working arrangement, that’s the only thing I can think of.

Cons

1. Don’t ever join if u don’t want to feel regret like me. I was deceived throughout the hiring process & their recruiters are not that good. They don’t even follow Malaysian Employment Act. 2. Incompetent leaders. Leadership is inexperienced and overconfident. They only know how to talk. Talks a lot about how great Korn Ferry is but the truth is???? And I’m doubting the credibility of their managers? Do u guys even know how to do your work? Or only pro with talking? 3. Feedback is always delivered in a harsh directive manner rather than constructively. 4. Managers degrading u. Not supporting u at all. 5. Limited acknowledgment of efforts 6. Don’t even have the proper recruitment tools. 7. No respect towards employees. 8. Don’t even talk about the benefits. I don’t even want to consider that as benefits. It’s below than average and so embarrassing to tell people about the “benefits” here. 9. Managers belittle you publicly 10. I can go on and on about the cons but I’m just too lazy to list em all.
