Pros

I tried to be honest about it, but I genuinely couldn’t identify anything positive.

Cons

Misalignment in Commission Structure The commission scheme was presented attractively during recruitment; however, the actual payout fell short of expectations after CPF deductions. Ineffective Leadership Leadership at the AM level appeared to be driven more by internal politics than collaboration, with frequent tensions across departments. Lack of Centralized Direction In the absence of an overall Head of Department, individual AMs tended to operate in silos, resulting in power struggles rather than aligned leadership. Limited Management Capability Many in leadership roles lacked formal training in people management, which affected team development and decision-making quality. Highly Controlling Work Environment Although autonomy was communicated, in practice the environment leaned toward close supervision and limited independence. Insufficient Back end Support Operational support from back end teams was minimal, requiring front line staff to handle extensive administrative follow-ups. Blurred Professional Boundaries Interpersonal relationships within the office occasionally created complexities that impacted the working environment. Challenging Industry Outlook The industry showed limited growth prospects, contributing to a generally pessimistic atmosphere. Limited Compensation Growth Salary progression was modest, with increments being relatively small. Remote and Risk-Prone Location The work location was isolated and posed certain safety considerations.

Pros

Healthcare plan is great, chance to interact with many people globally if you are high enough of a position. Managers are hit and miss, depends on your region but I had generally positive experiences with Inside Sales Managers.

Cons

No work from home time for most people, New management for US sales came in and messed up the culture. Fired people seemingly at random, changed the entire organizational manager structure, and did so while delaying movement to a much needed larger office. Everyone left just feels scared and is holding out while they find something else.
