Pros

Excellent office culture, very kind co-workers and managers who are caring and always willing to help. Diverse, multi-cultural environment. Great opportunity to learn about various industries and what's happening in them. Salary + performance bonus are great for an entry-level position in Singapore. Benefits are good too, including gym allowance, medical, dental, company outings, and a nice office in a central location. The tasks themselves (stalk LinkedIn, cold-call, cold-InMail, basically offer people money to do phone consultations) are generally doable for the average population.

Cons

Extremely fast pace - due to the nature of the industry, it is inevitable to expect results in a matter of days, sometimes hours. Constantly very heavy on social interaction over phone, LinkedIn, email, WhatsApp, which can be extremely draining for introverts. Stress over monthly targets - they are feasible, but if you're the type to brood over these things, they may feel like knives hanging over your head. Repetitive and rather monotonous workflow. Requires multi-tasking skills as you handle 6+ projects at a time (I personally find the constant task-switching very tiring).

Thank you for your feedback. We are happy to hear about your positive experience working in our Singapore office. We agree that we have excellent company culture with competitive salary and benefits. We recognize that certain elements of the entry-level Client Service Associate position can be repetitive, and often find that repetition early in the role is a great way to learn and refine skills needed for success. If you wish to continue the conversation about your experience, please email us at feedback@guidepoint.com. Best of luck in your future professional endeavors!

Pros

Great place to be, especially right out college. Exposure to so many different industries and valuable skills such as cold calling, organization/time management, managing clients/exposure to clients early on, researching, communicating in a professional setting You get out what you put in, if you are a hard and dedicated worker, there is a clear path for promotions and room to grow in the near future Great environment, fun culture, friendly and welcoming - young company that definitely works hard but plays harder Upper management is very friendly and open to recommendations on how to improve - never an issue with asking questions either Training program super helpful for entry level - there is mentoring program

Cons

Not just anyone can do this job, definitely a science to the madness that takes time to master
