Business outlook
Pros
Competitive salary and overtime pay are given at SG location which many employees (especially engineers) routinely abuse the system by staying back to do non-work related issues.
Cons
Poor company outlook with retrenchment ongoing to save cost. Multiple instances of pay freeze in the last few years. Typical American culture to fire when times are bad and rehire when times are good. Local SG culture is dominated by management who has know each other for many years and promotions are determined by "who's is in the inner circle". Sometime new hires are "earmarked" without them doing anything and as long as they don't do anything wrong, they are on the express track.
