Pros

Everyone is willing to help. The culture is very relaxed. Leave when you want , and come in when you want love it .

Cons

Too much work is placed on HR, departments in HR are not aligned with each other . Something has to change ! Too much stress. Mentioned earlier the culture is relaxed, although that is seen as a good thing it is not in HR . A lot of favoritism. Good talent is leaving, because of the culture and stress.

Pros

Global presence of the brand.

Cons

plenty... no motivation, no work life balance, no rewards for performers. if you are not in sales / marketing it is absolutely zero rewards or recognition. No respect for talent. Lot of internal politics. HR team don't have a say on anything. it is all based on your manager and department head. there is no career path, promotions, internal / inter company / department movement. even if you move it made sure to be a long waiting time and a complex procedure. when it comes to employee benefits everything is cost cutting. you cant call it as MNC even when their HQ is singapore and their HQ is Paris. everyone in the team is a manager, then who is working?
