Pros

25 days of annual leave is a plus but the trade off will be immaterial bonus amount (not industry standards like what HR states during offer stage) and low promotion opportunities.

Cons

Within IQEQ Singapore: Immaterial bonus as well as increment and low to no promotion opportunities within regulatory compliance. Steep learning curve if come in without relevant experience/ background. Referring to a manager: Old school management style, practice of micromanagement, favouritism, double standards, erratic temper, poor management of emotions, makes you walk on eggshells daily, makes you feel small to the extent that you will doubt your own ability to even work + verbally abusive (“for your own good”). Avoid at all cost for your mental health.

Pros

Process very organized and structured. I was allowed to partially onboard prior to first day. Received high quality company swag. The people here are what impress me the most, they genuinely are busy but yet want to connect and get to know you.

Cons

Dallas traffic (uncontrollable). I do not have any negatives.

Pros

Co-workers, benefits, work from home, learning opportunities.

Cons

Compliance department is toxic: bullyish behavior by directors, enormous workloads on associates and junior staff while directors are not communicative or connected to clients and teams. Juniors are not allowed to state issues and concerns without the "employee liaisons" coming after them. Junior staff turnover is worse than McDonalds because of director treatment. Head of dept. does nothing when employees are not treated fairly.
