Pros

Only a handful of good working colleagues. This is the only thing i can think of.

Cons

The managers are not up to standard in the UP dept. He has no idea how to manage, no sales background, no technical background. no management background. The management team loves to play politics, create conflicts among colleagues, they will only promote staff that are their favorites. they love bootlickers. The managers from UP show no respect for their salespeople and technicians. They only want to get sales figures and show to the top management. Daikin is the first company I heard of, their sales conversion rate has never been more than 30%, and the manager will STOP salespeople from processing PO when they achieve the monthly sales figure! I wonder what kind of managers is that. There are companies out there! This is one company I would said JOIN AT YOUR OWN RISK or if you are looking for retirement.... because they even hire chef to do sales.

Pros

Its in a nice building

Cons

Insane lack of communication; left alone after 3 hours on my first day. Did the work they wanted but not fast enough and they had a backup waiting to take my place and were not coy or secretive about that whatsoever. Was told not to bring lunch my first day. So I didn't bring lunch my first day. They did not provide lunch on my first day. I went out and bought food and then came back and worked alone the rest of the day. My trainer had retired years prior from a different company and couldn't understand that a PDF could be opened more than one way. What a relief I did not stick around. Oh yeah and I got very sick when they called to lay me off, but they needed their stuff back. Do you think they sent a courier? Nah. I went in thd next day, still sick, and waited over 10 minutes until hopping the security gate because no one was there AND I WAS SICK. Yeah, shortly after I received my positive COVID results. Welp, that about sums up my short stint at this place. Legal dept was completely chaotic. Also the open floorplan was awful during covid.
