Pros

Amidst uncertainty, the company's future remains bleak, with nothing good to report.

Cons

In the fiercely competitive world of corporate leadership, certain individuals can emerge as striking contradictions to their own professed ideals. The CEO and COO of this firm, whose actions appear to undermine the very principles they often espouse. Despite occupying their positions for a relatively long period, their leadership style has already raised eyebrows among employees and industry insiders, with clients expressing similar concerns. Within a week of their new employees arrival, these executives have vociferously articulated their vision and mission for the company which they can't follow. However, they seem to struggle with effectively communicating and embodying those values themselves. Their inconsistency and failure to lead by example have led many to question their credibility as role models within the organization and beyond. What's even more troubling is their online reputation, particularly on platforms like Glassdoor, where employees candidly share their experiences but CEO tend to be defensive. Regrettably, the feedback is far from favorable. The apparent inability to execute the company's mission and vision has caused disillusionment among the workforce. Instead of focusing on strategic initiatives that drive the firm forward, they are squandering time on trivial matters, resulting in frustration and a lack of confidence in their leadership. Compounding these concerns, the company's overall situation has suffered a significant blow. Despite being in charge for nine years, the executives have failed to secure any substantial investments over the past two years, placing the organization's growth prospects in jeopardy. The company's empty promises have me contemplating my departure—endless talk, no action.

Hi there, Thanks for your feedback and sorry Cynopsis didn't meet your expectation. Actually, I'm quite excited about the renewed vision of Cynopsis and have articulated that to the team recently. It is especially refreshing as we let the old dust settle and fade away and welcome the new dynamics we now have in the office. People is one of the 5Ps that drives Cynopsis. Product, Process, Priority and Profitability are the other 4Ps. Everyone plays an important role in the organisation. We have a relatively open and flat culture at Cynopsis. If you have any real suggestion how to make Cynopsis a better place, please feel free to share more constructive feedback with us. Thanks Chye Kit CEO

Pros

Most staff are nice and friendly

Cons

- Low pay and not much benefits, as compared to industry - Constant fire fighting especially for tech, CS, BA and QA, very unhealthy - No work-life balance - Always working under pressure - Toxic culture - Very high turnover rate (you'll see a batch of staff leaving at one shot) - Products not very stable, full of issues yet sales team are always upselling them which caused the heavy workload for other staff to meets clients needs

Hello there, Appreciate your feedback. Apologies for the tardiness. We had instituted several changes over the last 2 years to improve the overall well-being of the team. I believe we are in a much better position if you happen to be speaking with any existing Cynopsis team members in Tech, CS and QA functions. Thanks. Chye Kit CEO

Not an ideal company to work for

Pros

You might meet nice people

Cons

It has a very bad working environment and culture. Few days in and you can already feel the politics within the company which is especially spearheaded by the Middle office.. you do not get much support from other departments and micro-management here is at its best. Departments do not work well together as most of the middle office do no give the required support to the front office

Hi there, Thanks for taking the time to provide your comments. A little surprising with your politics feedback coming from Middle Office. As far as I can see, with new members joining the sales, account management and marketing functions in recent weeks who work very closely with our Client Management team, everyone is super supportive of each other in conjunction with our tech teams. We just had a SG58 National Day celebration lunch yesterday. Pity you miss the team spirit the team is showing now. Best wishes for your future endeavour. Rgds Chye Kit CEO
