Pros

There really isn't any at all.

Cons

One of the worst boss I've encountered. Being a 20+ year old boss is fine as long as you listen and value your staff's feedback which in this case, isnt. The young female boss is very inexperienced, micro manages and has no respect for staff's boundary. She will text you non stop regarding work and give you late night calls up to 2am. There is nothing positive about the creative process here. Ideas and proposals are shut down instantly if it isn't what the young boss wants. You will be micro managed all the time by her so that it will only go her way in terms of creative direction. Her only form of design background is pinterest and she would ask you to follow whatever she sees 'pretty' even when the product or campaign doesnt suit the style. Deadlines are tight to an impossible extent solely because the boss doesn't understand the creative process such as photomanipulation, layouts and work in progress. The kind of work you'll be doing there is 'monkey see, monkey do'. Even when you do exactly what she wants, she will ask you to change at least 5 times only to go back to what it was originally. Trust the multiple low reviews that has been shown previously here. It's exactly as what was written. Her appointments and meetings that was actually for her nails or eyebrows resulting in her irresponsibly shoving all the work to you alone. Don't bother working for someone as ignorant and oblivious as her, you're way happier unemployed.

Pros

nothing. not one thing is good

Cons

if you’re looking for a job, don’t look here. it’s been a while since I left the company and I must say the mental trauma is real.

Working at Ice’s Secret has been a draining experience, with an overwhelming workload that never seems to let up. Despite voicing concerns about the mounting tasks, the bosses show little empathy and instead resort to gaslighting when targets aren't met. Overtime is expected and leaving on time is frowned upon, with calls for work coming in as late as 12am.
 Btw at least 80% of their employees have written a Glassdoor review so this isn’t just select former employees writing bad reviews. its 80% of us all experiencing the same mistreatment and feeling the same way. The remaining 20% is likely those who were hired through family/social connections

In summary, I would strongly advise job seekers to think twice before considering a position at this company. The toxic work culture, excessive workload, and disregard for work-life balance make it a challenging place to thrive and grow in your career. It's crucial to prioritise your mental and emotional well-being over any job opportunity, and this company fails to provide the necessary support in that regard.

FYI, the office is not one bit near to the MRT, it’s at least a 10mins walk / 5min bus ride.
