Abstract: The aim of this study is to understand the aspects which give influences to employee’s working performance. Data was collected used questionnaire and interview with 45 subjects. Interview was conducted to 15 employees out of 121 employees working in one oil company in Jakarta, Indonesia. The result of this study showed that leader’s individual or collectivist culture may give influences to employee’s working behavior. Both, individual and collective culture, have their own pluses and minuses. Therefore, employees are expected to be able to adapt and taking positive sides from both cultures. Employees are also expected to have better and closer interpersonal relationship with their working colleagues. Also, lower interpersonal relationship between each departments may cause employee’s performance become less maximum and make it more difficult for the organization to reach their goals and targets.
