If you’re considering working at TEH Group in Southeast Asia, think twice. From my experience and what many former employees share, the environment is very toxic. Staff are pressured to constantly call and message companies to push event sponsorships they often don’t need. Salary deductions are reportedly common, and leadership behavior is often described as hostile and disrespectful. If you’re considering joining, research employee reviews and speak with former staff first.
