Pros

1) If you're good at sucking up to bosses, Astro is just the place for you! You will flourish and bloom even if you have no idea how to do your job! 2) The Pay (also depends on job level and who you are related to) 3) Benefits

Cons

1) Unfair performance reviews - despite achieving or surpassing targets, there will always be ANOTHER reason or excuse from HR on why a promotion will be declined or delayed for another 10 million years. Don't believe me? There are so many Astro staff that's been working tirelessly for more than 5 years and above and they still hold the same position. They are labeled as 'Antiques'. 2) Does not encourage Internal Promotions. Astro would rather hire external people with less industry knowledge (vs. internal staff who's more experienced + deserving), who then gets an 'Express Ticket' to a Manager role (AVP and above), some even gets immediate headcount to hire more newbies! Imagine how the more seasoned staff feels when this happens EVERY SINGLE TIME across ALL Depts! 3) Astro's HR Dept is the absolute worse. They are super clueless and do not give a damn about Staff's wellbeing at all. They claim to listen and understand grievances etc. But, at the end of the day, ALL of them have to go back to sucking up to respective bosses in order to save their own behinds. Oh and big big pay cheque.
