Pros

Salary paid on time every month. Its good for people with 2 to 3 years experience as you can get to learn a lot by figuring out things by yourself as there is no one to help you out. Neither your boss(client) nor your team mates, because they are also stretched out. Can't think of anything else positive. Made a few friends because everyone was equally negative about the company.

Cons

Its just a bodyshop. Come with 2 -3 years experience, work for 2 years, See singapore, explore SE Asia. Then leave the company to start your career. Go out and make friends outside the company because its very depressing environment in the company, Lot of people with years of experience wasting their talents doing good work but not getting any rewards or recognition. Its not good for people with more than 5 years experience because there is nothing new to learn here. Management is pretty clear that they are out to make a fast buck and if you get screwed in the process, thats your problem. They are transparent about that. Spend two minutes reading your contract and you will know that you are just a piece of trash to the management

No career growth Body shop employer

Relationship manager

CEO approval

Business outlook

Pros

No frill; it's all about bargaining for money; direct entry point into multinational workplace; very challenging but if you're willing to work hard, you can learn a lot on your own energy

Cons

No career development - it's all up to you. You will have to accept being a 2nd class corporate citizen. Working hard doesn't translate to recognition and fair compensation. Management is short term focused and treat people as material resources

Bodyshop. Airconditioned sweatshop

Senior consultant

Pros

Salaries are always paid on time. If you need writing pads, pens or file folders, you can get it from the admin with minimum fuss. Desktop or network issues that prevent you from delivering the output to client are fixed with utmost urgency.

Cons

AIT is a pure bodyshop. They provide bodies to their clients and treat them just as another office equipment like a desktop or a printer. If the client wants a person replaced, the management goes ahead without bothering to see if there is an alternative position available for the person, with the same client or a different client. There are no skill training or development programs for employees. Any training received is wholly dependent on the client. No growth opportunities within the organization. Employees have to fend for themselves if they want to change their team or job role. No hospitalization insurance provided to the employees until the year 2010. The worst part is that the company does an underhand trick when paying the employer CPF for PRs. If the Employer contribution increases (eg: from 1st yr PR to 2nd year PR to 3rd year PR or when the government changes the CPF contribution rates) A-IT will cut your salary by the same amount and use the difference to pay up the difference in CPF. End result is that employee ends up with less take-home salary. No regular salary hikes. Salary hikes solely depend on whether the client requests a hike to be given. The management does not bother to negotiate with the client. Its upto the employee to negotiate with the client to get any salary hike. Of course the profit margin for A-IT does not get touched. The management will not reduce their margin even slightly in order to provide a small benefit to the employee. No concept of bonus or any other incentives for the employees. Directors and management have made a lot of money over the years but have not even though about sharing it with the employees. My suggestion to any one contemplating a job with A-IT is to stay for just one or two years to get some job experience and then leave for a better company, if you are really interested in growing your career.
