Pros: * Work-life balance
* Pay
Cons: Laying off teams as a whole without assessing the impact. This leaves many projects without owners, and later, no one knows what to do with them.
People getting laid off right after a performance review of exceeding expectations.
Seen people crying in the office multiple times. It is not a great feeling.

Singapore HR makes fun of employees
Staff Engineer • Current Employee
Singapore, Singapore
July 20, 2022
Pros: Good job security, flexible work culture, and listening managers.
Cons: Made fun of employees. With Singapore HR, settled for a single-digit hike when the CEO announced a "significant" hike.
HR doesn't know about the growing inflation in Singapore. Need a new HR team.
