    Good working environment but there are rooms for improvement
    The good thingsFriendly colleagues and good working environment.
    The challengesSalary is on the low side. Private education industry in general is facing difficulties due to tightening of government regulations, heavily impacting business prospect and profitability. Slow or no replacement of leaving staffs, leading to spill over of workload to other team members. Certain department are required to work weekend shifts, with no standard double compensation (only 1 day off given)

    Ambitious Institution with Excellent Academic Reputation
    The good thingsCoherent team of motivated individuals who work together to achieve ambitious goals. The company has a large team that shows strong comradery making for a non-threatening and motivational work environment. Company has well defined goals that paint a clear picture for the future of the company and its intended direction. Company has multiple avenues for staff to give extra to students and the community if they wish.
    The challengesSize of the institution may, at times, make it unwieldy. Company is currently, like most other educational institutions, in a transition period - moving from traditional teaching and learning strategies towards newer practices. This is not necessarily a negative as this presents an excellent opportunity for individuals to work towards further developing a truly unique learning experience for the large student body.

    Feasible to work short term
    The good thingsLocation of both campuses make it convenient and accessible via public transport. Peer level support is relatively good. Food options surrounding both campuses are quite wide as well.
    The challengesChange in work structure and reorganisation occurs multiple times year. Hence this disrupts all supposed 'routine' work as well as emotionally demoralises employees. High turnover rate at both Management and executive level, hence leadership and adequate talent to guide and lead the teams are lacking. Career progression plans are not clearly spelt out to enhance motivation and career objective of the individual.

    Daily high volume but manageable.
    The good thingsThe person in charge was very supportive, helpful and let me do my daily job on my own with no disturbance. The job was cleared every end of the day. Its a good time management.
    The challengesNeed to improve filing systems neatly and appropriate. The linkage of the computer system is too big cos most of the staffs used at the same time hence resulted to hang or slow to use the computer.
