Pros

Generally, the staff is a great ;bunch to work with. The teamwork among staff can be great if they are managed properly and given opportunities to excel. The physical office environment is very pleasant to work in; the office location is very central and also near MRT station which makes it easier to travel to work.

Cons

The management team is not competent enough to lead the company into further success. They are also quite poor in people management resulting in high turnover and staff dissatisfaction and low morale. MIcro-management by the management is rampant and that leads to staff not willing to take initiative to improve the processes.

Pros

Employees work hard but mostly out of fear. Negative atmosphere behind the scenes that is only apparent when management is not around. Common behavior in a culture of fear.

Cons

Disorganized. Competing hidden agendas. Highly political. Results tracking below market in rapidly growing industry. A lot of management, but zero leadership. Huge favoritism to specific selected employees that do what they are told.

Pros

The people are nice. The atmosphere is relaxed and everyone feels comfortable.

Cons

Management doesn’t really care about the main business and it looks like they are just waiting to retire. Even the new ones don’t seem to know what they’re doing. Most really good employees leave after a few years but the ones who are just happy to cash their checks stick around for 20 years.
