Kejuruteraan Mercantile Neon Sdn Bhd

Pros: I felt pretty secure in my role as a Project Engineer. The company rarely does layoffs, which is good. There's always plenty of construction projects going on in the Kuala Lumpur office, so work feels stable for engineering professionals.
Cons: While job security is decent, career growth is slow. You don't see many promotions. Pay isn't the best compared to other mid-sized corporate firms in the industry either. Onsite work is the norm, so flexibility is low.
Advice to Management: Consider reviewing the salary scales to be more competitive within the engineering industry. Also, creating clearer paths for career growth would really help employee retention and morale.

Pros: You get solid exposure to different civil engineering projects early on. It's a good place to learn the ropes, especially if you're fresh out of university. The Kuala Lumpur office environment is generally friendly, and teamwork is okay.
Cons: There's not much of a clear career path beyond junior roles. As a Project Engineer at this mid-sized firm, it felt like I was stuck, waiting for someone to leave. Training budgets for professional development are pretty small, so growth is mostly on your own time.
Advice to Management: Create clearer progression paths for employees, especially for those who want to advance into senior engineering or management roles. Invest more in ongoing professional training to retain talent within the civil engineering sector.

Pros: As an Electrical Engineer here, I've found my colleagues in the Kuala Lumpur office to be genuinely helpful. There's a decent team spirit; people really support each other, which is crucial in a busy engineering firm.
Cons: The biggest issue is the work-life balance. We often work long hours, and frankly, there isn't much work flexibility if you need to WFH. Sometimes leadership can be a bit micromanaging, which can be frustrating.
Advice to Management: Trust your employees more and try to implement some work flexibility options. It would really help with morale and reduce burnout.

Pros: If you prefer onsite work, it's fine. You're mostly at the Kuala Lumpur office or project sites. For engineering firm roles that need constant oversight, it makes sense.
Cons: There's not much work flexibility here. Hybrid work arrangements are rare for project staff. As a Project Engineer, you're expected to be present, which makes personal appointments tricky.
Advice to Management: Consider offering more flexible or hybrid options, even if it's just a few days a week for non-site roles. It would help retention.
