CelcomDigi

Pros: You get good exposure to the telecom industry as a Junior Data Analyst. The job security is solid because it's a big corporate. They offer some decent online training modules.
Cons: Career growth for entry-level positions, like mine, is pretty slow. It's hard to get promoted internally or move into new roles. I've seen limited opportunities for advancement within the Kuala Lumpur office.
Advice to Management: Please create clearer pathways for career progression for junior staff. More internal mobility options would really help with retention. Invest in development programs specific to emerging telecom technologies.

Pros: The company is huge, so there's always something new to learn if you're proactive. You get exposure to a lot of different tech stacks in the digital services department. Plus, the hybrid work model is a nice perk for work-life balance.
Cons: Career growth for technical roles like mine isn't great. Promotions feel few and far between, even with solid performance reviews. It's hard to move up the ladder in such a big corporate structure.
Advice to Management: Management should really look into clearer career paths for individual contributors, especially for engineers. It'd boost morale and retention if people saw a path forward beyond lateral moves.

Pros: For a big corporate telecom company, the benefits are decent. The hybrid work policy is a huge plus, especially with traffic in Kuala Lumpur. My team in technical operations is really collaborative and supportive.
Cons: The company culture feels pretty fragmented post-merger; it's tough. You can tell Celcom and Digi ways are still clashing. Transparency isn't great, especially regarding decisions for digital services projects.
Advice to Management: Work harder on truly integrating the two company cultures. Provide clearer communication from top leadership down to teams like ours working on the mobile network.
