      Lean team that takes care of South-East Asia region client

      Associate sales planner

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Was offered a pretty good salary with decent medical coverage. An array of advertising inventories to craft proposals - their own cable TV channel, online site and social media handle.

      Cons

      Have to work with executives that do not have a sense of urgency, only got informed of certain tasks at the very last minute. Still using outdated sales recording system instead of Salesforce, alongside TV logging system that is user-unfriendly. Bosses like to monitor user status via Slack, creepy much. Also, a platform to dump tasks that should be communicated via email. Conferences start either super early or super late due to the 13-hour difference from the US.
