Good to make a living at this moment, bad for anything else.
Good to make a living at this moment, bad for anything else.
Above average compensation in Singapore.
Standardized engineering methods.
Plenty of moral boosting activities.
Production ATE (non-degree holder) can earn satisfying income.
Core business can be profitable for another 5 years, safe for mid term income consideration.
There is an operational based mindset in Singapore, where talents are not valued.
The operational-only functionality in Singapore is leading to a political culture and little chance for personal development.
Engineer salaries are pitiful.
Low end management is not qualified, and it is selected based on the controlling point of view from higher management rather than capability.
Different mindset in MFG and ENG, politics, and discontinuity in communications will gradually erode the product development cycle.
MFG and install are an important feedback source for R&D and ENG, which need to be valued.
