Zero trust in Management

Pros

Before the new CHRO and CEO took up their positions , the old ASM was a great company to work for. Employees were treated with trust , respect and former leadership cared for their team members authentically

Cons

Look at the high no of leadership folks in Singapore who have either been asked to leave or forced out of the company. The new leadership is getting rid of the old ASM culture , instead replacing it with a culture driven by fear , distrust and a common practice of sabotaging your own reportees to look good. New Managers/ Senior Managers and Corp Directors in Asia (Japan, Korea, Taiwan, SG ) only care about protecting their image , and would not hesitate to blame their reportees for anything that goes wrong. Everyone feels extremely put off by the new culture that has since taken over with the new CSuite and this is made clearer by how their cunningly lay top performing people off just because of politics. They reward people who are going to support them without fail. A lot of our new senior managers across Asia are just here for the pay and title and not truly to help ASM grow

Low morale in Singapore office

Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

I guess we are still hiring should be a positive in todays environment

Cons

Current culture that is supported by the HR team and leadership team is toxic. Impacts employee morale and productivity negatively. Can safely say colleagues in my team are highly demotivated while all of us are looking for external opportunities to come our way. There is also a heightened lack of trust due to poor comms, which weakens the trust we have in the CSuite and also the overall vibe in the office in Singapore. Performance management is a joke in ASM. As long as your manager likes you, your job is safe. If you dare to challenge your manager, be prepared for HR disciplinary action to follow shortly after. They keep those they like over the top performers as long as they are “yes” men. Can safely say if ASM were to survey employees, there will be a high proportion who are burnt out and worn down by working here.
