Reviews about "management"
Return to all Reviews- 1.013 Mar 2018EngineerCurrent Employee, more than 5 yearsSingapore
Pros
- A lot of OTs for selected projects - Recognition based on people you know - Growth based on who you know - Those good at stucking up, skiving and pretend on front of others can do well
Cons
- Controlled over time for selected projects - Bonus deducted depends on Sick Leave and performance (usually Sick Leave. Management has no way to measure your performance) - No work life balance - Work your socks off but very little way to get recognized - Lousy management, no proper care of staff

- 3.011 Mar 2018Senior EngineerCurrent Employee, more than 3 years
Pros
Friendly culture and colleagues Management tries to nurture the junior staff Steady income from aircraft maintenance and repair which alleviates pressure on R&D based projects.
Cons
Management aiming too high and unrealistic ideals about current level of technology. E.g asking degree holders to do things that even teams of PhDs or Google have trouble with, e.g 100% image identification of features. Mismatch of skill sets (e.g people with aero mech majors relegated to writing documents/specifications). Too many proof of concept projects. Big and bureaucratic. So much red tape procuring things. Fixated on aerospace sector projects, (e.g. due to it being the ST Engineering group's aerospace arm), and hence unable to pivot fast.

Most staffs are warm and friendly, work environment is clean and nice. Overall, it is a pretty satisfactory place to work at.

- 1.028 Dec 2016Anonymous EmployeeFormer Employee
Pros
Decent pay and employee benefits
Cons
Poor leadership at nearly all senior levels. Virtually no communication between senior management and shop personnel. No clear strategic vision. Micro-management by site leader and corporate office. Employees are treated as 'units of production' rather than as stakeholders in the company.
2 - 4.020 May 2013Anonymous EmployeeCurrent Employee, more than 1 year
Pros
Friendly peers. Recent business ventures provide career development opportunities for motivated employees. Good entry package especially for engineers. Sponsorship is also available for employees whose personal development is aligned to the company direction.
Cons
Some senior management need convincing to invest in longer term initiatives especially if the immediate returns is not favorable. This does not detract from the business direction but can create some delay.
