In all the buildings in Makati, where do you want to work?

[Mguy]

In what building in Makati do you want to work and why?

Ano naman pinaka-ayaw mong building?

[1D4LV]

i have worked at the following buildings in makati:

The Insular Life Paseo corner Ayala. Bulok pa nun dati, pati interiors, pero ngayon bago and remodelled na daw (as per my wife). Wide parking, pero exposed sa elements. Before, food was so-so, but now, medyo may choices na.

Citibank Towers, Paseo de Roxas. Medyo luma na sya, and ang hirap lumabas specially at night. Pero daming chikas. Mostly citibank employees. Ang hirap ng parking. Food is ok.

The RCBC Plaza (sharap dito... hassle nga lang ang security dahil sa dami ng embassies). Accessible going to Skyway, Buendia, Ayala, Pasay Road. Dami ring chikas dahil ang daming call centers sa loob. Daming food choices, wide basement parking (B5, B6, B7), although i used to park sa B4 dahil company paid.

Rufino Towers (damn.... amoy luma na ang loob). Walang chikas. Ang bagal and parating sira ang elevators. Di masarap ang food. Used to park at the dela Rosa 2 carpark (company paid).

I am now working at the Enterprise Towers... Same as RCBC but with less strict security. Hirap lang lumabas specially at night dahil traffic sa Paseo de Roxas. Dami ring eye candies. May Watson's sa loob. hehehehe. Still parks at the dela Rosa 2 carpark (company paid).

The best for me is RCBC Plaza, the second is Enterprise. Among the other buildings that i would want to work in is yung Ayala Towers (tapat ng Enterprise) and Phil-am Towers Paseo de Roxas (pero i'm sure, na traffic din dito pag gabi...)

Pinaka-ayoko?

a) Vicente Madrigal Building
b) Yung building na tabi ng Smart Center kung saan andun yung Villman Computers.
c) Rufino Towers.
d) The Old Makati Stock Exchange Building (ang daming paniki dun pag gabi..)
e) The buildings along Pasay Road (like Fujitsu Center, etc.).

I think RCBC Plaza, I attended a training there once in ’04 and nagulat ako may banda after office…sorry ignorante ako walang banda sa medical center eh dami ring mga pinky pretty faces smoking after lunch - as far as pretty faces is concern di patatalo mga interns at resident docs namin sama pa mga nurses and med students shhhhh…

[Mguy]

Wow. Naka-ikot na talaga si 1D4LV.

I am working now sa Phil-am and its ok rin naman. Bad trip lang ang parking kasi its littered with humps and in inconvenient places. Plus, traffic pa pag-alis mo ng parking.

I'd like to work either sa 6750(?) beside Shangrila hotel para madaling puntahan ang Glorietta or sa Equitable tower sa may Paseo kasi madali ang parking doon.

Ang ayaw ko talaga is the Prudential Building along Ayala (it should be torn down na) and PBCom tower dahil ang daming daming tao doon.

OT:

From South MM,-

Ayaw kong magtrabaho riyan sa Makati, hanggat maaari....

Traffic, (mahal ang bayad sa SLEX), masikip at mahal ang bayad sa parking, mahal ang pagkain,- kaya ang ilan ay kumakain na lang sa tabi-tabi....

Dito sa trabaho namin,- hindi traffic, (wala/mura ang bayad sa SLEX) maluwag at libre ang parking (may bubong pa ang ilan), subsidized ang pagkain sa isang air-conditioned na cafeteria na may TV, table-tennis, darts, 2 billiard tables...Kung ayaw kumain sa cafeteria, may ATC or Festival Mall or Bellevue or Vivere na puwedeng puntahan...

Kaya, pag nagha-hire kami ng mga babaeng empleyado,- we encourage the hiring Managers to hire the pretty ones,- iyon lang kasi ang medyo dehado kami sa Makati dati....Now, hindi na... And, we encourage everyone to wear 'office attires'....Ayos! ....

Maganda mag office sa gallery building sa amorsolo. Lapit sa creekside:naughty2:

haven't had the chance to work in any makati office building. Kalye ang opisina ko

[chua_riwap]

Sa Salcedo Towers diyan local office namin.

Pero gusto ko sa Enterprise, yung building ni Ayala or sa RCBC Bldg. Dati sa Ortigas nakapagtrabho na rin ako. Bago pa noon yung Taipan Bldg.

[vhenok]

In as much as possible, I stay away from Makati....
pero a few months back, when I had a 2 weeks training in Makati, kahit papanu nakatikim ako ng "what-its-like" to be working in Makati wherein somehow laki na ng improvements. Foods are abundant na kasi almost all buildings may mga fastfood, but still I find it hard to park and the rush hour traffic, sobra parang di ko kakayanin hehe...

In 2 years perhaps lipat na kami ng building, but not definitely in Makati, somewhere near the ports as our company is currently engaged.

IMO, parang okay sa RCBC.

[_Qwerty_]

pinaka effecient daw na building eh yung Philam Tower, in terms of space, backup power, aircon, elevators, etc.. so yan ang class AAA building together with Enterprise, RCBC, 6750, Ayala Tower One... i think nasa 1,000 to 1,500 per sqm na dyan sa mga buildings na yan.. tapos malulupit ang after office aircon charges..

In terms of food naman.. ok sa RCBC at Enterprise..

[chua_riwap]

OT

Ano'ng opis ba sa Makati ang maraming magaganda?

Dati sa IBM, Bank Of America, at Citibank, pag napunta ako riyan, dami dyan. Kahit mataba, maganda. He-he!

[theveed]

As long as it's in the Makati hellhole, I don't want to set foot in it hehehe, hate Makati so much.

[suv]

^

hate mo rin pala makati.....ako inis na inis ako pag ang pupuntahan makati.....

Pag nagdrive ako nakakadistract yung matataas na building sa makati........parang ang sikip sikip....

Puro one-way mga kalsada!!! Imbis na i-assists ka ng mga yellow boys eh aantayin ka gumawa ng violation.....buti na lang hindi ako lumiliko pag red light or tinitingnan ko muna kung ano gagawin ng mga cars sa harap ko.....

Makati is overrated.....Mas maganda pa sa San Juan........bawal matataas na buidling......

[flakez]

3 of the the buildings i want to work in makati:
enterprise
rcbc plaza
pbcom

and unfortunately, i've able to work on the 3 of the most dilapidated bldg in makati. namely:
madrigal bldg
rufino tower
and bpi card center.

[Matrix]

I was a Field tech 5 yrs ago and working with several clients in Makati. Halos lahat ng bldg dun napasok ko na. Fom 6750, Stock Exchange, Pacific Star, PLDT Bldg.....Pinaka gusto ko sa lahat is RCBC next is Enterprise (libre boso).

[yakult]

Gusto ko sa Ayala Tower One, GT Tower, or RCBC plaza. Pwede rin sa PBCom Tower.

I've worked in the following buildings:
Legaspi Suites on Salcedo St. - Sobrang luma, tapos laging sira elevator, dadalawa na nga lang yung elevator. Hassle tuloy pag OT, deretso inuman na lang tapos balik office pag ayos na yung electrical ng elev hehehe.

Chatham House on Valero - nice pero alanganin, security sucks, elevators are nice, pero sana may food court.

Enterprise - love it here, wala na akong hahanapin pa, may food court, ministop, Watsons, and accessible sa Greenbelt, Glorietta, Ladnmark through the walkways. Hassle nga lang pag traffic na sa Delarosa.

[KERSMcRae]

all at high-zones of the following:

1. Ayala Tower 1 - I think the only building in MM with unitized curtain wall system.
2. RCBC Plaza - maganda ang building, kaso stick system at hindi maganda ang workmanship ng CW.
3. PBCom Tower.
4. GT & LKG Towers.

OT: Mas ok sa Makati CBD kaysa dito sa Ortigas Center. Madaming jollijeep na kainan (mas mura at masarap na "lutong-bahay").

[vito corleone]

i enjoy the sight of the many girls but as much as possible ayoko ring magwork sa makati, traffic coming to and going out. . .if i have to work in a company there, i'd prefer the building adjacent to mrt ayala or buendia stations (sa mga food stalls dun )
