Pluspunten

Hay is a company that unfortunately has a toxic working environment, a somewhat old-fashioned approach to work, and management that could use improvement. It may be most suitable for individuals who value KPIs, enjoy verbal recognition, are comfortable with a high level of management involvement, and have a resilient nature.

Minpunten

May I kindly suggest that you refrain from asking your employees to fabricate Glassdoor reviews. It is important to be transparent about your company's true color, which seems to be one of exploiting employees and subjecting new staff to arduous work. While there may be occasional perks, the management's unpredictable behavior has created a toxic working environment. Unfortunately, some Western managers who may not have sufficient knowledge of the local Asian markets are sometimes appointed to manage the real experts. Each MD or Director is undoubtedly valued in the so-called 'international' organisation, although in reality they often act as mere puppets. To succeed in this company, one may be required to be obedient and follow any instruction from the UK, even if it is not the best decision for the local market. It is possible that some of the older-fashioned decisions may be perceived as being handed down from the King of England. I implore you to take a closer look at the organisational structure and make changes that ensure fairness and transparency.

Pluspunten

Great place for new recruiters to gain experience. A lot to learn. Younger crowd, fun teams.

Minpunten

Competitive, people that weren't succeeding would be put on PIPs and eventually let go. Can be some micro-managing. Not all managers created equal - some great, some not so great.
