I thought it was only for BMX (bicycle motocross) since obviously because of Nigel Sylvester, not all bicycle sport in general.
Titan(Philippines) markets the AJ4 ‘Brick After Brick’ for cycling which I think is not even remotely proper to wear for the sport.
Most of us already know why Accenture doesn't push employee merchandise compared to companies like Google, Microsoft, or startups.
Former employees said it used to have more visible branded polos and lanyards, but employees allegedly became targets for theft/snatching, especially around salary or bonus periods in places like the Philippines.
Another reason is probably client-facing neutrality.
Unlike consumer tech brands, its mainly a consulting and outsourcing company working with thousands of clients. Employees are often embedded inside client offices or systems. Being overly branded can sometimes clash with the “we represent the client first” culture common in consulting.
There’s also a brand-risk angle:
None the less, employees(even non-employees) are still free to purchase unofficial merchandise found in Shopee or Lazada.
You can also create your own design and have it made somewhere. Anyone/everyone can coordinate and produce their own.
How about you? What kind of merchandise would you want?
So Hans “King Panda” Tan has apparently started a new controversy involving criticism of the Manila International Auto Show (MIAS) and local car review culture.
While criticizing MIAS itself can be a fair discussion point, the issue seems to have escalated when he allegedly used insulting and derogatory terms toward other car reviewers, specifically targeting Vince of AutoIndustriya.
He also reportedly claimed that other car reviewers are being paid to “upsell” vehicles and give overly positive reviews.
I’m not fully aware of all the details yet, so feel free to share your thoughts, context, or any additional information about the situation.
