Work culture in IHiS

anybody work in ihis corporate services departments, such as HR, comms etc.

Can share how the culture is like?

Hey everyone

I left IHiS after working for a few years and would like to share that the working hours is crazy here. Especially if you are doing operations work. For my role as an analyst, it really depends on which system you are supporting. If you are unlucky in a mission crit system, be expected to work during the weekends, in the middle of the night from 2am to 5am, or even longer. If you are on support roster (mine is every month), you will dread hearing calls at the middle of the night. Soon you will get phobia of hearing tigertext and phone calls. It is worst if you have bad management. Company keeps re-org, all the good seniors and staffs left. Some wanted to transfer but was blocked my management, what a joke.

During COVID times, I have burnt almost every weekend.
Time offs are not clearly stated and really depends on your reporting officer and department. Honestly I do not think I have redeemed back all the lost sleep. Even went to GP due to sleeping issues.

Too much red tapes and processes just to do a deployment.

You are helping to save lives but with your own health at stake. Just my 2 cents for all interested, lolz!

This company is unique in the sense that everything takes priority over saving patient lives (even if it means sacrificing your own life). Basically it is used to justify broadly and blanket cover any ailments or misgivings about the company's shortcomings. Any opposing views get shot back by the ivory tower management. Yes they do occasionally ask u for feedback and surveys, but only for them to gather intel and word out a reply to pay lip-service to you.

To all new joinees, don't say i didn't warn u

Ya bro, heard many old birds in IHiS have left also.

Well I would say better than those in Application or Infra teams for sure.
But during COVID times, heard from ex-colleague that they were deployed to different sites everywhere and now got new management so not sure how it will be

guys first time replying to a thread here

currently my team members are all quitting 1 by 1 which makes me very stressed out because they are what keeps me going at work. some new joiners quit before 1 month even. can't blame them because of the culture here, management keeps overloading us with last min request, everything all urgent urgent. anything also is our fault even though we are doing our best, OT everyday. the truth is there is not enough manpower but management keeps saying they cannot increase headcount. I know for sure if I stay on I will go ccrazy. should I start finding a new job? or try tahan.

Looking at so many negative comments about other company almost every single one is negative. It’s probably the worse company in this forum. Scary place.
