Pros
Pays well. Great benefits. Easy life cos no KPIs to meet. As one of the Senior Mgt leaders tells his staff, the best way to survive in Temasek is to do nothing and keep a low profile.
Cons
HR (or O&P as they call it internally) is from the 1960s. Hypocritical and toxic political culture. Patronizing and egotistical management. The biggest issue highlighted by staff for over 10 years in anonymous staff surveys is fear of retribution. Despite everything they say and claim, the performance assessment is based on popularity. The people who get promoted are the most political and those who game the system. Performance doesn't really matter if you're popular.
