Pros

Open office plan Good workmates Buffet dinner Bosses are funny characters Work is not equally distributed, so if you are lucky no one will notice you don't do anything

Cons

Heavy workload if unlucky. No management at all. Many of the bosses are always gone. Senior employees do their own thing. Few middle managers actually care to mentor us. Studios don't share earnings so must close down if not making money. A "team" can be just you left. Each studio has their own working styles which are not consistent. Bosses say they care about employees but do not give increment bonus.

Pros

if you fall in the right team you might get to learn a lot, but at the cost of your own health and finance

Cons

- Overloaded work, with long hours and low pay - Corporate company structure without proper corporate benefits (increment, bonuses, even social events like DnD or team bonding is out of question) - Current local CEO isn't looking too hopeful -Lack of resources - Basic requirements like Adobe licenses can't be issued to us, yet they expect us to do work that require Adobe software - Lack of office space due to downsizing, yet they require workers to be in-office (Current local CEO appeared on the news during Covid lockdown period for forcing staff to work in office) - Toxic backstabbing culture amongst management - Winning projects and doing good work does not translate into any tangible rewards like bonuses/increments - Company saves money by implementing a Bring Your Own Device policy, which requires you to work via a remote desktop that is extremely disruptive to workflow

Pros

1. Plenty of fine colleagues, with great energy and attitude doing their best. 2. If you are young and have energy and commitment, you can learn a lot under the right director. 3. The office has a good view and is quite spacious. 4. Good annual leave. 5. Depending on the studio, you can get a decent work/life balance. 6. Exposure to different types of projects.

Cons

1. The main issue with Ong & Ong is that the company management and directors have no vision and purpose, no experience or idea on how to successfully run a company. It also does not help they are unable to take responsibility when things go wrong and end up blaming the employees for the company's poor financial performance. 2. Plenty of condescending, patronizing comments from the management and directors, both looking at their employees with contempt. 3. Appalling HR/IT department, they make your life more difficult in every possible way. 4. Old, slow computers barely working with limited software (you could say the same about most directors). 5. If you are a responsible employee, you will be rewarded with more work and responsibilities meanwhile less “committed” colleagues with no interest to grow and help the team, will have a good time not doing much, and probably getting the same pay as you or more. 6. If you want to grow professionally, be aware that you have little to none opportunities ahead. 7. Low pay and no bonus. 8. Substandard design solutions in all studios. 9. Financial reports and decisions are not shared with clarity and openness to the employees. Nobody knows where is the money or where it is going.
