Pros

Culture is good with great colleagues.

Cons

Long working hours. No worklife balance. Glorified factory worker. Work keeps piling even though there were very high number of resignations. Pathetic bonus. Senior managements don't seem to understand how bad the situation is.

Pros

The voluminous amount of work allows employees to be able to learn at a faster pace.

Cons

Due tot he huge amount of work handled over to the team, there is usually a need to work overtime. There will not be a time of the day to rest as we are constantly working once we are seated down in our work stations. Career progression wise is bleak as the management will hire externally to fill up senior positions instead of internal progression.

We recognise that our industry is one where there are times that require overtime. We try to balance this with policies and practices that promote and support health and wellbeing.

Pros

Depends on the team you are in . Opportunities are out there for you to grab it IF you know who to talk to and if your manager is important enough. Trust me.. They can pull some strings to promote some clowns with no credibility or whatsoever. The culture is really relaxed. The people are very friendly.

Cons

No work life balance. OT can reach up to 15-20 Hrs a week for first 2 weeks during month end. Starting salary is good, but increments over the years is really bad compared to market rate and senior mgmt is aware of that but not fixing it. Huge turnover rate due to long hrs, underpaid and not being able to recognise or reward soon enough to those who really deserve . Office politics.

Dear employee, Thank you very much for your feedback. Please know that we are taking your comments seriously and looking to verify concerns you have mentioned. In terms of OT during month end, I hope you understand that such is a common and inevitable part of the financial cycle. Thank you
