Pros

1. Good business ambitions and growth in coming years especially in Southeast Asia 2. Nice strategy to improve business and profit. 3. Good food in office canteen

Cons

1. Less employee friendly - you can be fired without reason/notice sometimes just because your thought process isnt aligned with your manager even if you spent decades in organization 2. Pay is very bad - you get around 40-50% of STVS (Variable Pay) and new joiner should be aware of it. Your CTC might look great on paper but in-hand would not be matching. 3. STVS (Variable Pay) - you don't get paid on pro-rata basis even if you spent 11 months before leaving and it also does not get paid if you join 3 months in advance.

Pros

I have a great manager and a great team. Opportunities to grow. Truly global company so you get to work with colleagues all over the world. Long track record of working with sustainability. Current focus on sustainability and digitalisation.

Cons

Big company, networks are necessary for success (however fairly easy to build).
