Svantaggi
No. of work days specified as 5 days but some weeks you are required to attend to meetings and calls at irregular hours even stay late for OT. For more than 15 minutes late, you are required to stay back for the minutes you're late, ended with you missing the company bus to MRT. One is not allowed to carry forward the minutes late to the next morning. Turn over for employees is high. People come and leave. Some workers hired not competent enough to do work let alone certified. Lack of manpower also plays a big role in completing projects which lacks in here. Taking leave is almost impossible due to their "earned" leave entitlement and how it is given. Every employee's leave differed due to category but how one define their category is not defined nor explained. Example: general workers are 7 working days, admin staff starts from 7 working days up to 14 working days, and for higher positions 14 working days up to 21 days. The employee handbook is not available upon asked thus making it impossible to dispute the company rules as it is not available nor given access to any employees. If require to take longer leave for holiday trip, must carefully plan and earn the leave entitlement. Marriage leave entitlement - for most company is 5 days but its 1 day for ROS. Work load is mounting as days goes by. One needs to be able to multi task in different roles despite not having the knowledge and learning the ropes as you go along without anyone assistance / guidance. It's every man for himself. One needs to commit to their 3 months notice period (regardless which position you hold) if decide to leave making it less possible to be employed in another company. Monotonous working environment. Not uplifting to work.
