I have 4 years working experience and I served in this company for 4 years.

My sharing:

I'm fortunate to have a good boss that always offers an increment that's up to market par. Good company management definitely will make your work life a lot easier. The only downside is the career growth is a little bit stagnant.

I am a Graphic Designer in a Advertising company based in Selangor.

I have 2 years working experience and I served in this company for 1 years.

My sharing:

No company benefits can be used just a minimal amount of medical claims, works in an Advertising Agency. Sometimes on leave also have to work as there is no manner that can be respected. Really appreciated that certain things can be tolerated. Somehow, to earn extra money have to do freelance but at the same time, people lowball me for a freelance job. As my time and my break are not as important as their task even tho, give out a timeframe to finish it.
