Pros

Nice renovated offices in Causeway Bay 9 to 5 30 hours OK place if you just want to “float” but don’t have real career ambitions

Cons

Heads of Departments and MD pulled in from other businesses and don’t really know well the Services which they administer. Revolving door of leadership. MD uses Peter Principle to hire rather than value real talent and track record. No real meritocracy eg one of the Heads of Department in HK only has high school level qualifications. Not OK, especially in HK where credentials are valued. Lots wrong internally. MD makes sure that the inner circle is only yes people rather than value different views. Gives rise to glass ceiling and chemistry issues with management, especially if you have career goals and want to get ahead. Try it and you may not like it.

Our team are experts in their respective fields/roles, especially our HODs who, by job requirement are professionally qualified. We foster career development and internal promotion is always our first preference when there is opening in the organization - in Hong Kong, we have an internal promotion rate of 19% over the past 12 months alone. We believe in working as a team in a transparent structure and appreciate that with a diverse team, leadership styles may vary but this is a value we uphold and commit to at TMF Group.

Pros

The good things: you will learn, the pay is amazingly average for the amount of work and insult you received, and lastly - the horrendous company gatherings/outings and fake smiles.

Cons

1. Senior managers, managers and team leaders (most if not all), are the world's best micromanagers, the living CCTVs and recorders of your miserable achievements. 2. They point out exactly how your mistakes were done, without providing the guidance and assistance to ensure that they will never happen again. 3. Like Trump said - the two-face: smile in front of you and will give you the worst rating for the most average work that you can do. 4. The managers think that they are leaders. I wonder what makes them think so? Friends will be there for you during good or bad times, they may not be able to help you in life, but they sincerely care. However, TMF management & Managers - they are unable to care but only for themselves. 5. The managers instill fear and do not take responsibilities, just like Trump. 6. After I left, I thought new joiners will be treated with respect and are provided with the guidance they required. But no, they are given piles of work and monitored via mobiles phones during the lockdown. I felt very sad when some of them talked to me about how bad they were treated but were left with no choice but to stay because of difficult to find jobs and face the bully managers. 7. You reap what you sow. Please remember during this pandemic, your position means nothing, your money means nothing - after you lost your love ones. Please stop the preferential treatment, racism, backstabbing and dumb office politics.

We understand that there are areas we are still lacking, which may differ from each local experience to another. We take all the feedback provided into consideration and ensure that this is being highlighted to the management so we can improve. While some efforts may take time to implement, we have made significant improvements to our priority areas such as working arrangements and performance management where we have adopted a new process with a strong focus on development in addition to performance, and it incorporates our TMF values.
