Pros

I currently work as the Senior Marketing Manager here and 3 years ago I started in an entry level position. The consultancy has provided me with a chance to learn, grow and understand all aspects of expanding a business. They've provided me with an opportunity to move to Singapore and work across all aspects of the business. My concern was always being pigeonholed as that had happened previously in my last 2 companies, but they have always let me try my hat in new things. The work/life balance has been great, we're a very social bunch and often meet in our own time. As with all companies, we sometimes have to pull late nights but most importantly it's not every night. When we are here late the management makes sure we are rewarded. RR has continued to keep me engaged and I look forward to continue working with them.

Cons

The harder areas of the business are the constant changing of tasks , we are busy a lot of the time and sometimes the re-prioritsation of our tasks can be a little frustrating, however this is the norm of a expanding compnay in Asia.

Pros

I genuinely had a good experience at Reading Room with all the colleagues and clients and pleased to be in contact with many after leaving the team for a new role. The work is varied and interesting. There are always unknown opportunities depending on what plans new and existing clients bring.

Cons

It can be a very full and complex workload for the project managers. They take a few knocks at times. I hope the leadership is building them up. There job should be able to lead with authority. Software development always has its unknowns. Sometimes the work is understood, there has to be a better way of explaining that to clients and managing the expectations.
