Thank you for the feedback. Numoni has good investors. The CEO and the Board worked very hard to get the investors onboard from 2013 to 2015. The Company pivoted its strategy twice over the 5 years, which is not uncommon for Fintechs. And the new strategy which was THREE Pronged has tremendous growth upside for Asia Pacific Region. The strategy needs very strong Technology leadership to fulfil its mission in the market as Numoni is a Fintech. All leaders can appear as good and bad apples to different people at different times. The KL office is responsible for revenue of Malaysia market and for technology. Overall leadership is tough in fast growing companies. The Company had never hired 40 staff over 6 months and so perhaps you refer to the Restructuring Exercise from SG to KL when the SGD was 3x the MYR. That restructuring affected many staff for the company to go for investment effectiveness. It was inevitable, as is the case of outsoucing by many SG companies to India, Philippines, China and Malaysia. Thank you for the feedback.

Vantaggi

The above three words summarised the company well being. This company is going in their 5th year of operations but no new products and kept calling themsleves a Strat-up, please grow up. The only product making money is a small business in Malaysia which they acquired last year, a few thousands Ringgits a month. Sad!

Svantaggi

- Working hours 24/7 and 7 days a week - No benefits - Senior staffs were asked to take a four-month leave coz the company was not able to pay - High employee turnovers. 95%of the staffs have gone, and only 3 employees stay longer than 1 year because they need to get a Singapore PR - Employees work in fears because the culture here is "threatening", "abusive" and "humiliation"

No senior staff was asked to take four month leave. Some senior staff who were paid to market (!) and to their previous salaries (!) were asked to reduce their package during a time where the company had to sort out fund raising, and only the very senior staff were included in this salary restraint exercise. Such an exercise is not uncommon in companies or in start-ups. In time, when the Company does well, these same staff would have been rewarded with Share Options. In anycase, all staff were paid up to current day, and only some remain on the salary restraint, which is a directive to help the Company under Fund Raising Constraints in a Fintech. The staff in KL were released under a specific directive. Globally, something like this is not unusual. We see it in all major banks worldwide in downturns where thousands are released. It is regretful that the staff who were released over this period did not understand the more macro issues. However, their emotions are perfectly understandable as are their perceptions which is from their standpoint. It is very unfortunate that the staff seemed to have fired off responses and not understand the underlying issues. Perhaps this is indicative of the age-group and experiences of the staff. In the time that the office was observed, all development staff left the office by 730 pm most days. The KL office had hardly been open on Saturdays and Sundays. The 24/7 is not possible therefore, and of all development teams in the company over the 5 years, the KL team were given many special privileges over the 1 year they were onboard. Perhaps it is a matter of expectations.

Thank you for the feedback. We need more staff who are willing to climb higher and do more. All start-ups and Fintechs need these. Good luck with your endeavours.
