    Bishan East Central RegionLess than 1 year in the role, former employee
    Enjoyable team but management n supervisor not being fair ,EMM ALWAYS HAVE ISSUE WITH AL , OT , MC
    The good thingsMy peers is the best , working with them makes me gain alot of knowledge. super friendly
    The challengesThe management , how they treat their workers and be fair to atleast hear from both sides of parties instead of pulling just the manager aside to discuss . Make a one-one interview to understand more about their workers instead of having an interview with the supervisor .

    Bishan East Central Region9 to 10 years in the role, former employee
    Overall a good Average company that can work long term can be more that 10years ..
    The good thingsCompany that have good peers , colleague and , Management that is team-work , learning and development centric.
    The challengesThere is a lot of red tape and not enough staff. The same few people keep getting promoted, which hinders career progression and promotions for others. Salary increases are very low, and organisational restructuring happens every 1 to 2 years, which is quite disruptive.

    Lack of motivation at ground level unless being the "chosen one"
    The good thingsUtilize the free public transport - that's the only welfare.
    The challengesPoor staff retention, many fresh grads see this place as a stepping stone after 2-3 years, those who left behind are either "henta - kaki" or those "chosen one" destined for success. Ground staff are largely lack of motivation because the lack of appreciation at their level with engineers who parachuted from nowhere to fill the void.

    A good company to retire in, slow-paced and unmotivated.
    The good thingsFree public transport.
    The challengesHuman resource could be improved in terms of orientation and managing a lot of unhappy staffs. Personal point of view anyway, high turnover rate in HR.
