If you divide NS (2 years) by the working days of a working person entire lifetime til retirement at 55 years

This is based on assumption that some malaysians dont do NS

The amount is 2 hours per working day that malaysians should OT for free

Saw this review on Glassdoor for ISCA

Toxic "family" environment

Associate director
Current employee, more than 8 years


Pros

Good food options for lunch.

Cons

ISCA has all the elements of a toxic workplace. There have been so many reorganisation (due to resignations) that no one actually knows who belongs to which department. Directors constantly resign. Everyone is afraid of meeting senior management or going for meetings with them because it usually just means more work. Employees often receive last minute work requests and are expected to deliver work over the weekend.

The decoration outside staff office literally says "CHIONGSTER", and they celebrate long working hours and working on impossible targets. Everyone is burned out and unhappy, but top level management does not care. Even when directors resign, they are subjected to fat-shaming and given a 'gift' (gym membership) because the director is fat and should lose weight. Such disgusting behaviour is really the run of the mill here at the ISCA house.

There is no praise or commendation for anyone, except for a few favourite pets. When things start to go bad and talented employees start resigning, the management began by blaming employees for not voicing out their concerns. However, when feedback is given at appropriate platforms, management accuses staff of being defensive, inexperienced, and unprofessional.

Things are so bad that an institute-wide meeting had to be called to talk about the employee retention. Many employees came in good faith but received a nicely worded message of "too bad you still have to continue working as hard". Not only is this tone deaf, it also shows a blatant disregard for employee well-being.

ISCA continuously makes empty promises which is very unethical and ironic, for a professional accountancy body.

Advice to Management

The CEO and President are unlikeable, soul-less people, who are not above manipulation, treating people badly, and expecting employees to work 24hours,

ISCA's CEO is unprepared for her role. She is unable to manage the president, and both of them should resign for the betterment of the industry.
