Pros

Interesting projects now and then. Nearby has some nice food. That's about it.

Cons

Everything mentioned here are NOT based on any prejudice or bias. No career path. Next to impossible to promote. No Over-time pay, no bonus. Employee benefits are super basic. No half-days, no Off days. Outdated work stations. Work un-credited. Crunch time workload forces you to work on Saturday/Sundays. Management has no experience in managing. Expects everyone to auto-pilot. No proper hand/take-over Each department plays the blame game. Everyone for him/herself. Toxic relationships with clients. Dishonest with clients. Sued by clients. Doesn't learn from past mistakes. Local Artists unappreciated.

Do Not Work Here If Possible

Pros

Pay is on time. That's the ONLY pro.

Cons

- Workers are treated like drones or robots and are expected to complete insane and unreasonable amount of work on a daily basis. - Management's idea of getting things done is by micromanaging employees through constant messaging by way of in house chat ( and the occasional whatsapp chat messaging). - Serious pipeline issues which cause major delays and hold up in work progress. Which employees are then held responsible for unfairly so. - Lack of communication and constant playing of the blame game. - Empty promises. - Absolutely Zero appreciation for finishing tasks but instead rewarded with messages accusing you of not "supporting" the company. - Work is not stimulating.

Pros

-the colleagues working here are actually all very skilled and fast in what they do. -convenient location, near mrt. there is a lot of food places around as well. -hardly fires anyone, usually people quit before they get dismissed. -pay is decent and on time.

Cons

-grim work environment and lots of toxic politics. everyone is very passive aggressive with each other. -no overtime pay or bonus, No health benefit, or rewards for the employees. -is rare to get any credit for your work -it is true you can avoid coming on weekends if you can get your tasks done on time. but even if they didn't like the work you submitted they will call you back in on Saturday. -they want you to put your personal life aside and put work as priority. They will guilt trip you if you couldn't come back on weekend or had to take days off for personal things, pester you thru texts/calls etc, using the whole 'we are a team, it is your responsibility' as an excuse. -the CEO is very dishonest to both clients (lies about the actual capacity of the manpower, has gotten legal complications because of this.) and employees alike (no open communication with them about the crisis the company got into yet still expects them to push their work for him) -your skill and passion would become stagnant and regress in the long run unless you manage to autopilot.
