Business Outlook

Pros

1. Business Trip Opportunities. 2. Assignment Opportunities (but they are reducing it from normally 3 years to around 1 year so that you may come back to take on a role that they want you to). 3. Flexible working hours (but if you're supporting Western countries, it feels like you're working 24/7). 4. Nice people (but it depends which team you're in as well). 5. I would say it's a good starting place for engineering grads who want to hone their technical skills. 6. Pay is on the higher side compared to local engineering companies. (but not so for oil and gas companies)

Cons

1. Below average benefits. (shared contribution for insurance, you would have to pay a fixed percentage for your insurance each month, shocking right?) 2. Never ending introduction of more "transactional" work where engineers are like low cost labor working on something that are not very helpful in terms of career development. (gone are the days where engineers focus on long term technical analysis work) 3. Remote work supporting overseas sites where they do not really treat you as equals. 4. On top of the 3rd point, we may work on something similar, but the pay is not. (just to be clear, you're on the lower end) 5. Super competitive ranking system, have already voiced out many years to management, but I guess this is how they want the organization to be, weed out the weak, milk the strong. And once the strong leaves, it's back to putting all the responsibilities on fresh grads and the vicious cycle continues. :) 6. One word of advice, if you're supporting an SG site, run. (they are the worst to work with)
