Pros

Fair retrenchment package provided during recent restructuring.

Cons

The VP of this particular division struggles to accept feedback or constructive criticism with a defensive attitude. Demonstrates a lack of empathy towards colleagues’ feelings or perspectives. Very bad leadership management in SG : Fails to provide clear direction or guidance to team members, resulting in confusion (recent retrenchment exercise). Struggles to inspire or motivate team members, leading to decreased morale and productivity. Leadership decisions lack transparency: retrenchments felt abrupt with no clear rationale. Lack of Empathy from the Leadership team: consistently dismisses team concerns. Employees report being treated as expendable resources, not valued contributors. Despite recent layoffs, identical roles are being rehired, suggesting poor workforce planning. Weak Leadership in Singapore Management: Strategic direction feels reactive, not proactive. Decision making lacks transparency, especially during recent retrenchments.
