Pros

1. The salary package is average, but for entry-level positions, it’s considered quite competitive. 2. Free shuttle bus service to the nearest MRT station, making commuting more convenient. (It's provided by the building management , not the company itself)

Cons

1. The onboarding training could be significantly improved. As newcomers, it takes time to adapt to a company’s work environment and procedures. That’s why there’s a three-month probation period. Expecting employees to master everything within a week is unrealistic. 2. The office morale was quite toxic. Some staff members were vaping indoors, blaming colleagues unfairly, and even shouting at their desks, creating a stressful work environment. 3. Managers, please provide more support to new joiners—we truly need your guidance and help.

Pros

Large business size provides opportunities for networking across various teams and regions.

Cons

Working here is like being a 24/7 slave. The company doesn’t care about your well-being or work-life balance. Even if you’re sick, there’s no backup for you, and you’re expected to keep up with tasks. Holidays are no exception—you’ll still be working through them, or you’ll come back to a mountain of tasks that feels impossible to clear. Career progression is non-existent; any hopes of moving up are dashed by absurd requirements and a lack of support. Performance evaluation is based on unrealistic targets, setting you up for failure and undermining your hardwork and sacrifice, including health and time with family. Worst of all, the boss will make you question your own self-worth, reducing you to just another cog in the machine. At the end of it all, you won’t just feel overworked—you’ll feel drained of any ambition or creativity. If you value your mental and physical health, look elsewhere.
