Business Outlook

Pros

Exposure to large-scale datasets and interesting consumer behavior problems. Good work–life balance compared to many tech companies; overtime is not the norm. Collaborative culture — most colleagues are approachable and willing to share knowledge. Opportunities to work on cross-functional projects with product and engineering teams. Modern office space in Singapore with flexible hybrid arrangements.

Cons

Career progression can feel slow; the org structure is quite flat. Compensation is competitive but not top of market for data roles in Singapore. Legacy systems and tools still exist in some business units, which can be frustrating. Decision-making sometimes leans heavily on US HQ, limiting local autonomy.
