      Micro-manged Boiler Room Chopshop

      Pros

      Young people, full of energy, free coffee, tons of drinks. They do have great learning sessions that help you build skills for your future.

      Cons

      They use excel sheets to fire people. It's micro-managed (it's completely scale-able, so this makes sense maybe). They only care about numbers. They are currently involved in two class action lawsuits with their current employees as plaintiffs. Commission is based on your goal, which changes every month and they do not release how the goals are set.

      Dissatisfying but with some knowledge gained.

      Pros

      Few or no cases of office politics and it is largely task-oriented. The environment is not as supportive and friendly as advertised but nevertheless, it is based on a flat hierarchical structure. Even the office is small, with all the various operations department (editorial, redemption, customer service, business research, city planning etc) and sales teams squeezing into one open space with no compartments/structures separating them, the various departments are in general not familiar with other departments other than their own. Fast paced environment with a lot of work. Hence, it is interesting. Get to grow with a growing company.

      Cons

      Long working hours despite low pay check. even though work place is designed to be an open area, intangible barriers still exists between departments. Lack of employee benefits. No proper pantry other than a drink dispenser. Have to bring your own cup and cannot use the plastic cups provided in the cupboard. Those cups are for guests only. very underpaid!!! No OVERTIME and long hours are usually expected from everyone. salaries are only around 2k on average, even for fresh grads out of local universities (NTU, NUS etc). This excludes the sales team of course.
