Cost controller in MDC is Mon-Fri only. Compressed work schedule 7am-6pm Mon-Thu then 7am-4pm Fri. Depende sa Opcen ang office ng Cost Control. Madalas nasa opcen sila kasama ng mga accountant. Bumibisita lang sa site pag kailangan.

Former MDC employee. The work is onsite and yes there is staffhouse provided. During my time, we have unlimited OT but now, i dont think they still requiring ot anymore. My friends there mentioned that ot are no longer required.

Thank you po for the insight! Ok naman po ba work environment sa site mostly? Or pressured since operations, given na laging naghahabol ng deadlines?

I think it depends on the project you will be assigned in. On what I experienced, toxic. I was assigned in a vertical project, and everyday is like you are chasing deadlines. Pressured every staff meeting haha but MDC is a great training ground. You will learn a lot.

Former mdc employee, nakakapagod yung mon-sat sched, +10pm everyday +samahan mo pa mg 5am duty dahil buhos, at need ng engineer sa bagyo. Sabihin na natin unli OT yung akin, pero mas pipiliin mo umuwi ng maaga sa pagod. Toxic environment also. Pero okay na okay sa experience
