Pros

I personally appreciate the new generation management team who have been communicating honestly with the situations and let us know how they made their decision with their earnest best to support the people and company. The company is led in a forward looking trend now that strive to navigate the challenges we had today rather than ignoring them. A place that once known to be a comfort heaven to work until retirement, employees who are in the comfort space will to think differently now with different level of energy which is good! We are here to work and develop as professions, not to participate in work place politics to stand with “red indian chief” around. If we are unable to share the same view with these “red indian chief”, they outcast us. The new management has been doing a good job to address rumours and keep the red indian chief on their toes so that they do not further damage the culture.

Cons

Will be better if JTC open a food court here. The company has been running lot of cost saving measures. The company is changing/restructuring a lot and there is good and bad in it. Flexi$ benefit has been suspended.

Pros

- dependent on department/teams, work-life balance is good, practically zero OT - come in as lead/manager, this is a perfect place to retire as the management rarely layoff people even if they are not performing

Cons

- bad communication between top and middle management, top management unable to see issues that are happening in teams - low increment yearly - promises for training and development tend to be not kept - compensation on the low side compared to the market - job grades are not made known (no transparency from the management, employees have no way to know their career trajectory) - very slow career growth and not much chance for promotion, they tend to prefer hiring from external; rather than promoting from within - tend to see a lot of senior/lead engineers that are not contributing much; managers pushing their work and responsibilities to others, etc.
