Employees at Mentari Books Indonesia appreciate the training and development opportunities provided, as well as the cross-functional working environment that allows for skill development, particularly for fresh graduates. The company offers flexibility in scheduling and compensatory off days for overtime work, contributing to a good work-life balance. Additionally, the positive and friendly work environment is highly valued.
However, there are some potential challenges, such as delayed registration for employee benefits like BPJS Kesehatan and Ketenagakerjaan. Employees have also noted long working hours and overtime expectations, particularly during training events, without additional compensation. There are concerns about limited career progression opportunities, especially for those who are not considered 'yes men' by management. As a family-owned business, there have been instances where decisions may be influenced by personal relationships rather than solely based on merit.
