Pros

Only one straight forward reason, reasonably good pay. REALLY, that IS it!

Cons

1. Not a place for new-blood joining the workforce. If you join this place you have to be prepared to learn fast. You have to establish your impression quickly, either you be beneficial to the company, thus being more popular among your group. OR , you go straight to the side where people belittle you thinking you're a push-over. 2. Though never really experience it, but I do see a few of my colleagues getting bad-mouthed after giving slightly poor impressions. One time, a person dozed off a bit at work sometimes when h/she first joined and was forever stuck with that image, then purposefully left out of meetings. My point is you have to be extra-alert here and never be able to let someone leverage against you. Btw, people do snitch a lot about you if do screw-up. so don't every think you can get away with mistakes, the office walls have ears and eyes and they are vicious. 3. In addition to point 1^^, the people working here are older, more experienced, evident from their age. They might not be able to communicate similarly/ speak to younger folks, so millennial please do take some time to understand them as it is not their fault. However some of them can be unreasonable, expecting you to self-learn and master everything in a limited time-span and thus extremely stressful. 4. Holidays here are non-existent. This company does not follow the calendar, you still have to work on holidays. Best of cases, you get to leave 1-2 hours before end-of-work time around. (start at around 830 - 900, end 6:00 - 6:30. Lucky on holidays, you end 430.) the company just wants to squeeze as much benefits from you and people are alright with it, probably because of the attractive number on the pay-slip. 5. In general, in my personal experience, there are many people who pushes blame around and if you're unlucky, you take the shot for the team but not many people recognize it, only a handful. I shall end-off the "complain" here. There's is definitely more but that's all my brain can pour out for now

Pros

- Flexible hours as we don’t have to clock in/out - Not much hierarchy, boss is willing to listen to feedback - No strict office dress code since office is located in a industrial area - Performance bonus is good if market is doing well - Transport is provided to Tampines, Yishun and Jurong

Cons

- Process is a mess. You can email to the entire world and no one can give you an answer unless you CC the email to your boss - Performance bonus is good only provided all ASM business units perform as expected - HR is weak. You can ask them about your benefits, claims and they will take weeks to reply. Only answer is “insurance company is in HK, they haven’t reply”. - Transport is always full as ASM is always increasing headcount. Despite many staff informing HR about the transport being packed, no action taken. Extremely weak HR. - No career advancements as there are many senior staffs.

Pros

Looks good in the beginning, normal working hour, not much of overtime required(for most departments). Some people are really nice and helpful

Cons

When you start to work with various department, you will start to realize most people here are not responsible on their task. Most staffs here like to draw lines and trying to push responsible to other departments. They rather spend time arguing about who to do rather than what to do. For someone who like to get a job done perfectly, this is definitely a bad working environment
