Regional exposure, but management structure and policies need improvement
Pros
- Opportunities to learn about the financial services/forex industry.
Cons
- Management structure: Reporting lines can be unclear, especially after restructures. Expectations are not always communicated consistently. - Office policy: Employees are required to work-in-office daily, even when their reporting managers are based overseas, which may limit efficiency. - Company culture: Although headquartered in Singapore, many leadership roles are held by China-based managers, which strongly influences communication style and decision-making. Roles that involve frequent collaboration with these teams may benefit from Mandarin proficiency. Candidates should clarify language expectations during the hiring process. - Turnover rate: Very high. Good to see HR’s effort to solve this.
