Pros

- salary is according to market standard - work life balance - lots of new things to learn - nice office and good location - friendly colleagues

Cons

- too afraid to do things differently, stick to usual 'recipe' - it was in progressive direction by diversifying the products under previous ceo, but unfortunately without cost control, then the the company is trying to turn 180 degree to go back to old business model, ignoring the fact that the world has changed - too much foreign talent, for the position that is not very unique or special, that actually a lot of singaporean would be qualify and perform well if given chance - interim ceo out of touch with the ground, demanding all staff to help to steer the boat, not realizing the fact that too many hand on the deck, will bring the boat to nowhere - interim ceo does not have any background in loyalty and data analytic business, bring the company to the state of confusion - despicable method of assigning 'special project' or 'weird position' that is not according to the skill, interest and capability of the person, in order to force some staffs to resign without having to pay for compensation. although it is not uncommon in corporate world, it is disgusting especially considering that this is NTUC - board of director is not taking responsibility for the situation, given that the previous spending spree was approved by them anyway, and now blame the previous ceo for overspending... the board also is not taking responsibility for appointing inexperience interim ceo to helm the boat, which is ridiculous.. no corporate out there will do this kind of nonsense.. remember what happen when business trained ceo leading engineering based corporate like smrt? train breakdown! same here... getting HR's trained ceo to lead loyalty programme and data analytic business?
