Pros

I was with the company as a temporary staff . Job is fairly easy to do - B2B telemarketing to generate leads for project managers. I was lucky and managed to hit the min goal set (generate 1 lead a day) so I didn't get much pressure from project managers to hit goal. Middle management - the project Managers are friendly and easy to work with. The stint worked out alright for me as I was only there for a short period so I didn't engage with higher management. Paid by the hour - so I didn't have to work outside of the office working hours (9am-6pm) If you are doing a temp job, this job would be alright as it a routine and monotonous job just to kill the time and earn cash.

Cons

For a temporary job, I had an unusually long notice period which was 2 weeks (MOM standard's is 1 working day). I had to stay on a longer period than i wanted just to clear the notice. Nothing much to learn for telemarketers. Just make calls every minute. Could tell that middle management (Business Development Executives etc.) were overworked, received little recognition, and had to met unreasonable demands from upper management.

Pros

Manager is realistic, clever, and doing really good in business. Taught a lot of how to do good business, learnt a lot from the management. Bonuses are fair, even add more if you perform well. Salary always comes in time. Leave approvals are easy. No politics. Staffs are friendly, helpful, communicative. Colleagues worked for years already like 15, 17+ years. They recognized efforts and encouraged you to grow a lot.

Cons

Less written SOP makes it sometimes confusing to follow the right ones without clear guidance. Now everything is communicated and discussed, operations are now clearer.

Pros

Work life balance Great as a full time job with insurance security when you have other responsibilities like study or part time pursue

Cons

Low pay Little growth or limited opportunities Bonus policy just started after being aggressively addressed this yr in the second quarter when it was supposed to be part of the job but not from the beginning even though it was mentioned before signing the contract The overall pay is below market price Underpaid but pressure exists and quite packed work hours and micromanaging Not so much freedom during work hours like traditional work place culture You sit in front of computer and make cold calls and send cold emails all day and if you MIA for more than 10minutes the manager messages you
