Pros

Friendly HR personnel who gave me excellent first impression when I turned up for interview. Team leaders (I've met two for interviews) are also fun-loving and very approachable. Colleagues in other teams are also kind and friendly. Presence of good competitive drive to obtain greater achievements.

Cons

Supporting roles are few in numbers in this company. Except Finance and HR department of course.

Pros

Easily accessible , nothing except that.

Cons

Worst company you can ever work with as they know no corporate rules or manners. Call out team meeting and shame employees, no training provided but instead you'll be constantly compared to other employees which they deemed to be the best way to motivate. Don't forget that if you're sick (including video call for verification purpose) cause the HR is better than doctor, they can scan you through video call and confirm if you are sick, there are bundle of steps to follow or else you'll be given lecture, called out for your mistake Infront of everyone or maybe even yelled at. Yes they yell at staffs and they call it reaction towards not taking accountability and it's done by HR and Head of HR not managers. Warning letter given out although zero job orders given apparently number are numbers. So just keep sending with lots of hopes. Also medical leave is unpaid leave before confirmation although in Malaysia MC is paid leave right after you start work. You pay for MC , submit to be unpaid when you're sick. Every question you ask is a threat to them, be prepared to be blackmailed , pay delay, called out when you want to resign. Overall it's a daily entertainment company if you want to learn what is toxic culture. Also forget about annual dinners , team bonding or what not cause there's nothing positive here.

Pros

I took on a new portfolio with the company lately as a part of the new leadership team driving the performance and culture of the company. With my professional background, there are slack and inefficiencies in the company as I observe . Process , systems and key measures which was either not instituted or not followed through properly. The performance of many consulting managers half a year ago were poor and affected the company. Comparatively, some listed companies in the same trade are doing much better than Achieve Group, though some players fair worse or even ceased in business along the way. The company needed some remodeling and strategy realignment. Many in the previous leadership team left with nearly a new management team driving the business. This does give the revamped management team excitement and zest to bring this company forward.

Cons

Yet with the mew leadership getting tough expecting better performance, those whom fallen short begin to compare the previous times of leniency and slack started to become negative. Adding on , there are also policy changes which usually people dislike, but necessary. On top of all these , there is the human factor of sentimental attachment to the previous leaders. The sad situation of ill remarks and personal assault comes in obvious. This is very human. They are not bad people, corrupted lot. But just carried with them too much of a emotional baggage. Many consulting managers left in the 2 previous quarters and in my opinion , probably a good thing. As mentioned in our business planning session sometime ago, if members in the dragon boat cannot row to the same direction with the same speed, the players should leave for something better. It is healthier and more beneficial for them , a win-win for all. As part of Achieve Group, it is a long standing time-tested company. It is going through an inflection point in reinventing itself with the senior management aspiring new heights. The culture has shifted for the better with the ‘old fellows’ leaving. The sales results is great , experiencing breakthroughs from the previous quarters. Many new consulting managers had tremendous results 👍😃 inspiring the team . It is a great company to be in now compared to 6 months ago . I hope my neutral perspective can throw some light towards the multiple comments on Glassdoor.

Pros

Good leaders to learn from and for those new to the industry and energetic environment.

Cons

Commission structure isn't as competitive compared to its competitors. Corporate culture is a little rigid at times.
