Dyson fails to fulfill its promise

Pros

Good work life balance(nothing much to do, no need for Over-time). Smart Casual dress code. Discount for own products(limited to 4 items annually). 3D mouse for CAD work provided.

Cons

Mediocre pay (for fresh graduates it is the same irrespective of your honors, whether first class or not). While it claims to be synonym of innovation, this is hardly so in Singapore. Here it's only about the later stage of product development, meaning you can't create new things from scratch- you can only do minor modification for product mass production. The information control is very tight here; you don't even know what they are developing in UK before the project get transferred. If you are not Ang Mo(local term for Caucasian), then don't expect fast promotions. The company has too many UK expats. Unusual high turn over rates.

Pros

The work is not terribly hard training is short and if you live within a reasonable distance the money just might be worth it. The staff is nice and there is a sense of family among the reps.

Cons

The call center used to be based on the North side of Chicago, they have since relocated to Aurora and offered no pay increase for addition 40 miles we must travel. In fact when turned from temporary to permanent the base pay was reduced. The policies are constantly changing with very little or no notice at all. The customer satisfaction surveys are really the linchpin do well you get a bonus but if you do badly you get fired...sounds fair except no where does it mention the survey is about the agent.

Pros

Nothing much really. Your time and efforts are not appreciated. You might as well not be working here. Your colleagues (some) are about the only up-side to this company as they are walking in the same shoes as you.

Cons

Senior management practices favouritism and clearly racist towards non-Caucasians. Very unappreciative of the working staff. A Director who actually tells his staff that they are day-dreaming and not working rather than trying to pull up the teams' morale and making a real sincere effort to understand what is going on.
