DKSH

Pros: If you perform well, especially in the core market expansion services industry, your job is generally safe. As a Sales Coordinator in the Bangkok office, I felt pretty secure if my numbers were good. It's a large, corporate environment with stable business.
Cons: There's a lot of internal restructuring, sometimes yearly, which can make things feel a bit shaky. You might find your department or role shifts unexpectedly, even if you're a strong performer. This definitely impacts long-term career planning here.
Advice to Management: Try to provide more consistent communication about upcoming changes and make an effort to minimize yearly reorganizations. It creates unnecessary stress and uncertainty among employees.

Pros: The benefits package for us, especially in Zurich, is pretty solid. Things like health insurance and pension plans are competitive for a large corporate company here. They do offer good perks sometimes.
Cons: Honestly, the base salary for a Supply Chain Analyst isn't amazing compared to other roles in the Switzerland market. Raises feel pretty modest, and there's not much room to negotiate.
Advice to Management: Review salary bands for key operational roles like supply chain analysts to stay competitive in the Swiss market. Better transparency around annual increases would help too.

Pros: The teams I worked with as a Supply Chain Analyst were usually great, really collaborative. Being part of a big multinational like DKSH does give you exposure to complex distribution logistics challenges across Southeast Asia. You learn a lot from the sheer scale of the operation.
Cons: Leadership here, especially senior management in the Singapore office, often seems out of touch with daily operations. There's a lot of talk about market expansion services but not enough clear direction for frontline teams. It can feel like micromanagement from above without proper strategic guidance.
Advice to Management: Focus on empowering middle managers more and less on micromanaging. Better communication on strategy for our market expansion services would really help everyone.
