Featured review

NCS selected this as a representative review
Great place to start off for fresh graduates. Attended their fireside chats at my university and was intrigued by the vision and purpose of the company, so decided to join the Nucleus programme. When i joined, i found that the management is very progressive and visionary. The Nucleus programme is structured and there are a lot of opportunities.

Pros

Great place to start

Cons

Challenging work, but fulfilling.

Pros

Cons

Extremely political

Only those who knows carrying favor will get the good book from the management. Those who focusing only on work hard or work smart will tend to lose out.If you are on contract? Your career is at the chopping board.

Pros

You will still able to get your bonus if you work for 1 year flat.

Cons

Disgustingly political working environment.

Internship at NCS

Poor company culture. Very horrible internship experience. The employees here are very rude, have habits of speaking vulgar and some of them even made very rude jokes on woman in the office.

Stable job

The stress level is determine by the project you go. The people are generally nice. But the salary here cannot compare with outside. The longer you work here, the more you are underpaid.

Lack in Leadership

There are supervisors/managers who really needs leadership skills - good communicators from top management to subordinates. We understand that stats matter and keep track of how to earn revenue. Learn to communicate the goals and not just threaten and get too personal. They often forget that they have hired human beings and not robots.

The workload is always manageable. There isn't much work life balance because it is 24/7 and have to constantly read your whatsapp group to digest alot of information.

Pros

Alot of mangement and supervisor micro mangaging

So so company

The package is not very competitive depending on the department you are in. Vendor environment, so there might be some discrepancy between your SLA and customer demands. Colleague wise is ok, as there is not much room for growth in the position therefore not much competition from your colleague.

Overall so so

Bad compensation for people who stay long.It depends on your luck and which boss you meet. Some projects are very political. There is no proper team lead in some teams and led to doing things our way. And changes are required because there's no proper communication beforehand.A supportive boss who encourages exposure to new activities. The Cons is the management is messy, and no proper KT to do a particularly challenging task.

Good place, good colleagues

I worked in NCS for about 10 years plus. I have picked up a lot of technical skills in NCS. Management is good. My colleagues and boss are nice and fun to work with and there are a lot of opportunities to take up courses (be it online or face to face). I like the environment and culture too. Location wise is accessible as well. Most enjoyable part of the job will be the opportunities to learn new things. I dont think there is any hardest part of the job.
