its illegal to work holding a visit visa
You need an employment visa to work
As the name implies "visit" not "employment"

The visit visa is only valid for 15 days so must leave Malaysia within that time.
Indians need a VDR or visa with reference to take up employment. This is collected from the Malaysian consulate in India. Without this no employment pass can be issued.
There are unscrupulous companies trafficking people from India and mistreating them.

No. Can't enter Malaysia on a Visit Pass and get it changed to an employment pass.
As mentioned above, the only visa that can be transferred to an employment pass is a VDR (Visa with Reference)
The VDR is processed in India by the Malaysian consulate (i.e. NOT online)
After arrival on a VDR, the passport is submitted to immigration for endorsement of the employment pass.
