Pros: As a Junior Software Engineer, I got to work on some decent backend systems. There's always project work in the IT services industry, so you're always busy. Good for learning new tech stacks if you seek it out yourself.
Cons: Career growth is pretty much nonexistent without a lot of self-advocacy. There aren't clear promotion tracks for software development roles in the Kuala Lumpur office. You're often stuck doing the same thing for years if you don't push hard.
Advice to Management: Management needs to create clearer career development plans and provide more opportunities for internal advancement, especially for those in software engineering roles. It would help retain talent in Malaysia.
