Pros
- Great, young team where you will find lasting friendships. - Access to their products, discounts etc. - Image
Cons
- No appreciation of employees (e.g. it doesnt matter if your're with the company 5, 10 or 15 years - you might get mentioned in a presentation but that's it) or their work. There were layoffs because of 1-2 bad quarters, and some people worked for the company 10+ years and didn't get a proper goodbye or anything. - Employees just get treated like a ressource. People got layed off, and the remaining ones are now expected to take over the work without proper payment or title, although they are already physically and mentally struggling. - Almost no teambuilding, team events etc. - E.g. I work in Europe and we had no christmas party since 5 years (yes, covid - but I know this is mindblowing: you could do something online) - Absolute disinterested HR and General Management in EU - Complete micromanagement from HQ in Singapore, barely possible to work on own ideas - Noticeable differences between culture and work ethic from HQ and rest of the regions - and the problem is, that HQ of course makes all the decisions (e.g. in terms of work hours/working for free, "sustainability", diversity, "team events" etc.) - Everything is always "urgent" without reasoning behind it. - Payment below Industry average, unfair distribution of salaries
