    What’s it like working at Hong Leong Financial Group?

    AI summary of recent reviews

    Hong Leong Financial Group offers a workplace with supportive colleagues and branch staff, along with opportunities to learn about banking operations. Employees appreciate the predictable working hours that allow them to maintain work-life balance.

    However, the organisation operates in a traditional manner with manual processes and paper-based systems. The management style is predominantly top-down with limited career development support, and the work environment requires significant independent work with minimal team collaboration, making it necessary for employees to be self-directed and proactive in managing stakeholder relationships.

    Do not join if you think you want career progression. For going to retire, you can do so.

    Jurong East West Region1 to 2 years in the role, current employee
    Very traditional and top down management
    The good thingsI don’t think this is a good company to work because no career progression and team head don’t wish to groom you as long as you don’t give him any problem
    The challengesYou need to be very dependent and do your own study. The management style is top down and you need to proactively building your connection with internal stakeholders else you will have a hard time surviving in the company. Most of the time you are alone so don’t need teamwork because you are working alone in the branch.
