Pros: As a Junior Project Engineer, I did get solid exposure to various construction projects onsite in Kuala Lumpur. There's a decent chance to learn the ropes from experienced site managers if you're proactive. They do offer some basic training for new hires in the construction industry.
Cons: Career growth here feels pretty slow though. There isn't a clear path for promotion beyond the initial few years, especially for project management roles. Training beyond the basics isn't really a thing, so you have to seek out external learning.
Advice to Management: Create clearer pathways for career progression for your engineering staff. Invest more in ongoing professional development and training beyond the entry-level.
