Pros

The only good thing is that the company is situated near the MRT. Nothing else

Cons

1) No VB for the past many years. There are many cases of employees not having any increment for the past >3 years (previous review also state the same) 2) Increment for many workers are below the inflation rate or way below the market rate (many engineers/technicians are poorly paid) - even they did value added job the monetary reward is really peanut 3) Transport was remove during covid period (while many companies are actually increasing their no of buses ) 4) Project driven company - company did not compensate properly to their workers driving the project (overload of work) - Management dont even bother 5) MNC Company but work like some local MNC with no clear cut job scope (many grey area , and people who just push their work around) 6) Employees are laid off due to cost cutting - jobs are distribute to other departments, thus increasing their workload (take note that those job are not value added & is not compensated) 7) Favourism is seriously in this company - few individuals/departments are getting way higher benefit/monetary than other department/individuals.

Pros

Molex is a great community. There are a wide variety of professional employees to network with. It is a very large company, but a small community.

Cons

Decisions from upper management, do not always trickle down through the organization. Not all of the departments follow the same guidelines. Case in point is remote working. different groups have different allowances. It is a small thing, but an area that could improve.

Pros

Benefits are very good for a company this size

Cons

Team is run based on last minute requests and on a lot of meetings to join leaving little time for your usual work. Director likes to devise “innovative” ways to get sales to give more information but instead it translates to chaotic management and more stress for demand planners. There are a lot of stress placed on leads for not getting their teams to get to unrealistic goals with an unsupportive sales team. There are hardly any consistent reviews for employees but it’s not unusual for employees themselves in PIPs. Overall I would say it’s a chaotic management style in this team. Pay hits industry average but not much more. Additionally there is an overemphasis on being in the office in this company because they recently invested millions in renovations so they track your badge swipes. There are really no company wide events to get people more unified other than a quarterly CEO town hall that managers force everyone to attend.
