Pros
. Good client profile . Tagged to GroupM's name. DO NOT use the name Wavemaker when you are out there, not many are familiar . Some nice people here (but they are rarer than Rosmah's pink diamond)
Kontras
. Median tenure is 2 years or less. . Recent departure of APAC CEO rings a bell on the poor leadership who manage the business like a jurassic park, old fashioned and rigid. Lol, can't believe the whole office is keeping quiet about this. It is like the person just vanished out of this air and from human history. . Some managers, directors and heads are nothing but job delegators, when you ask them about some media stuffs, they will not know. Especially some client leads, they do nothing but asking their minions to prepare PowerPoint slides and they present them to the clients. Then after that goes drinking with clients, this sounds like some highly paid escort. . Lack of tact is a signature for some of the managers and heads - these people probably climb the corporate ladder by kowtowing and currying flavor to the seniors while being patronizing to their juniors . Work you to the bones. Too many work and there was a hiring freeze. Those on top aren't willing to lend a helping hand. Just lip service (NATO) . A lot of dinosaurs who do not know their stuffs here. Should stuff some managers or directors back to Media 101 class. Utterly no sense of embarrassment at all. . Swim or sink environment. You will be thrown a guidebook to follow everything with little to no guidance. Onboarding is virtually non-existent . Some senior management had been stuck here for too long. Imagine if you throw him/her to another environment, (s)he will be shredded for his/her incapability. Too bad that it was such a great company 4 years ago, now it's just some living fossils running their Jurassic Park show.
