Avantages
- Good starting pay for fresh graduates and with ExxonMobil in your CV, it will open plenty of opportunities for you should you decide to exit the company. - Young and vibrant workforce, typically very friendly and helpful. - Plenty of training and self-learning opportunities. You will have plenty of opportunities to optimise and improvise. Good if you like to think outside the box. Lots of chances to improve your technical competency. - High chances of traveling to refineries for further on-the-job training (OJT) depending on your role with each engineer given a corporate card. Generous allowance for business trip spending. - Relatively good benefits (medical coverage, flexible working hours, monetary rewards for outstanding performance). - Lots of fun activities all year long over at KLTC that you can participate in such as subsidised island/overseas trips, fun runs/marathons, community outreach programmes, career days, team building, raya/CNY celebrations etc. - If you are a high performer, you may get opportunities for overseas assignments for around 1-3 years. - The Malaysian office observes all public holidays relevant to the state the office is in. If the public holiday is on Saturday, you will get Friday off, and if it is on Sunday, you will get Monday off. Early release (2pm) on the day before major public holidays like CNY/Raya. If you have to work on a public holiday, you may take another day off as a replacement.
Inconvénients
- High workload with a very steep learning curve. Sites are either European/North American so you'll end up having pretty late-night calls frequently. - The type of work is repetitive and time-consuming, lots of fire-fighting. If you can't manage time well, this is not for you. - Very competitive with unusually cut-throat performance assessment (forced ranking with around 10% being PIP-ed due to "relative performance" to your peers). - Related to the above, you have to really fight for visibility. You're only at the top because someone is below you. - Requires good communication and negotiating skills as you will need to lead a lot of effort and meetings as well as deal with clients (sites you are supporting). - Starting to restrict WFH days, so pretty much have to work 100% in the office even if most of your work is literally remote work (but you can flex your day). Literally taking attendance, but never tell you the number of days you actually need to come in so you might get caught out and be called to management. - Gossip culture is very strong in this company, even supervisors participate in this openly.
