Pros

Varied opportunities to post to different locations - work culture etc will change depending on that. I have met both good and bad bosses You will start off at a checkpoint though, and the working hours are tough Remuneration is decent for starting but pay progression is poor

Cons

Not much say in your posting unless sometimes you are wanted by certain departments. This could mean you work at Tuas but next time you need to work at Changi. Quite hierarchical and a lot of bureaucracy like you would expect of a government job. Bad for health unless in office posting

Pros

- Nice colleagues (Junior officers & some Senior officers) - Good salary - Benefits are good - Shift hours not too long. (Except for night shift) - Break times are paid, ot pay also good. - No need to bring work to home. - Not stressful for non-specialist position.

Cons

- Routine & auto pilot mode. - Dirty & Filthy inside counters. - Rats, Cockroaches & lizards everywhere inside counter and lockers. - Health will deteriorate if body is not immune to unhealthy smokes (from cars/motorcycles/bus/lorries) & harmful pollution/environment. - MC will be monitored very closely. - Survival of the fittest. - Only healthy and long service officers are able to adapt to the environment (will not be judged by no. of MC's they take) - Canteen food is not hygienic and worms/cockroaches are found inside food. (Invite more vendors to work inside/within the checkpoints!) - Many officers got food poisoning from eating canteen food. (Be more hygienic if you want healthy and energetic officers!) - Favouritism - Higher management very biased - A lot of politics
