      Unstructure, negative culture and no leadership

      Finance
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      Can't think of any actually. There are some nice people in the working group but that's about all.

      Cons

      Especially Singapore branch managing the dollars and cents department is very unstructured, poor leadership and runs the department like a mum and pops shop. The workforce is dull and resistant to change. The whole department is like a mortuary! Its like a retirement home and not for young energetic and proactive individuals. The state ozf the people is the reflection of the leadership. That says it all!

      (For GF Singapore) Like a sinking ship with ship captain and his top crews insist on going to the wrong direction

      Engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      You still get steady income which is more than enough to at least live in Singapore although a lot lower than standard market.

      Cons

      Employees are being asked to give it everything they have while the company gives 'peanuts' without matching appreciation (the company is having good business but still cutting the bonus). Downsizing manpower too much while reducing 'token of appreciation', thus giving much more workload to the employees. Non-degree holder is unable to get promotion to be engineer level. The top management thinks they are moving towards the correct direction while they actually don't know what is the root cause of current bad situation. No proper training for fresh graduate. The management keeps shouting to everyone that they are supposed to be a thinker while their treatment to employees is not nurturing the employees (the opposite, the treatment makes the employees to be yes-man people). Another thing, HR keeps saying that there is good worklife balance here, but in reality there is no such thing as worklife balance here. If possible, work 24 hours without OT pay (the management really asks the employees to stay back without claiming OT).

      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      Not anything I can recommend or have a bit of pride in it.

      Cons

      Everything that can go wrong did go wrong. So wrong that it deserved to be written into any MBA course for "Failure Case Study ".
