- Once I reached Singapore and joined Optimum, I realized there is no permanent job in Optimum. They just deploy at client place as contractor/vendor and once placed @ client location they never care about u.
- Less annual & medical leaves than normal contract employees ( 12 AL & 8 MC) for a year.
- Worst work life balance. I suffered a lot. The client makes your life hell. I have worked more than 15 hrs on daily basis. Some time coming to home at 3 AM or 4 AM. Almost all weekend working during my 2 years of stay. No comp off.
- Very unprofessional and unethical. If you are leaving within one year, they will deduct whole One month salary + Flight Travel Amount +10 days accommodation + VISA fee
- Salary gets credited on midnight of 7th of every month.
- All projects are short term. They claim minimum one year of work with employee but its not actually.
- They don't pay you if your are not billed from client. If no project from client, then no salary. There is no concept of bench/pool for at least one month.
- No proper response from HR. You have to follow them like a beggar to get your work done.
- No career path. There is no appraisal system. Hike depends on client.
- Before joining the company please go through the reviews, otherwise u will suffer after joining.
