Pros

Excellent growth opportunities if you mix with the right group of people, none of which unfortunately fall within the group of Singapore management team.

Cons

Beware if anyone is looking to join this company. If you do not fall within your immediate superior's good graces, then be ready to quit and find another job. The SG management team is basically an old boy's club looking to keep their positions while downplaying the employee's role in building the business. Especially bad are the managers who would not survive in companies that are run half-decently. You will find people who are in the role for a long time acting like they are a few days into the job. Blame pushing is the default mode of working. Collaboration? None.
