Unproductive, military like organization
Sales (Current Employee) - Jurong East - July 26, 2022
Constantly reorg and change of team can be a killer to employee's morale. Many of the so called "manager" are really here to wait for retirement, if your rank is not high, then you will most likely be doing most of the jobs. But I have met some others in the organization who are really on the ball and are good at their job. But the ratio still is like 5:1, can be quite stressful especially for new joiner.
Pros
Free Linkedin Learning ? I dont know
Cons
Top down hierarchical approach, red tapes are everywhere, lots of politics

Full of dino
Software Engineer (Former Employee) - YCK - July 25, 2022
Entered straight after graduating from Uni. Unable to get along with the older folks around my office probably because they think I am new so I have a lot of learn. Toxic culture and love to talk down on people because they have been in the company longer than all of us. Good retirement company. Join if you like doing repetitive work, wants to earn a stable income.
Pros
Easy Work, Great if you are independent
Cons
Long hours, dino blocking your career progression, mediocre salary

It was not a bad experience
Training (Former Employee) - Singapore - July 11, 2022
I was looking for an interim career before moving elsewhere and ST provided me with a suitable job.It almost feels like a pseudo SAF with many ex military people working in there. The hardest part was having to work with ex military personnel who left the SAF with something to prove. The easiest part was working with retired officers who were still very keen and enthusiastic.

Great stepping stone.
Project Engineer (Current Employee) - Ang Mo Kio - July 11, 2022
Great stepping stone for fresh graduates, best to leave after 2 to 5 years, to gain more exposure.Messy documentations, different boss/project leads adopt different document formats.People can have audacity to sleep during work hours and still get paid!, but you can only do this once you have completed the minimum expectation required.
Pros
Caring boss
Cons
Zero progression, Minimum Guidance

Workplace and environment is ok
SENIOR ADMIN ASSISTANT (Former Employee) - Amk - June 7, 2022
When first started you will be under outsource worked for 8 years still outsource my apprisal is actually very good written by my supervisor but in the end it does not help still getting outsource status and low salary increment someone even got just a $10 increment only good for graduate treat it as a stepping stone as here you will able to learn alot as you will do alot of jobs that out of your scope which you can learn alot from it so actually is good when you still new gain more experience and find a better workplace 2 year is the best after that can start looking for better offer unless you promoted to perm staff which I doubt.
Pros
Monthly free fruit
Cons
Very low salary increment as low as $10

Interesting place
Admin support intern (Former Employee) - Ang Mo Kio - May 14, 2022
I was posted here for my school internship (ITE). Even though I was more on the hands-on mechanical side, I was given the opportunity to experience doing behind the scenes admin work related to my course.Food around the area is honestly great but considered expensive for interns like me.

If you need a place to work
Engineer (Former Employee) - Singapore - April 19, 2022

Pros
Great colleagues!
Cons
Poor management

Stable job but underpaid
Analyst (Former Employee) - Jurong East - April 17, 2022
Stable company to work in. Benefits and salary compensation is not good, only consider if you are joining at a senior management level for retiring. Hope they keep their salary competitive.

Low salary

Poor management and poor handling of resources
System Engineer (Current Employee) - Ang Mo Kio - February 12, 2022
Manpower limited, and each staff will have multiple project to work on. Even when someone leaves, their workload will just be redistributed, without hiring replacement. Workload will just increase.
Pros
Many colleagues are nice and willing to teach
Cons
Overloaded with multiple projects' tasks. Depending on project team, some team mates can be toxic. No communication between management and staffs on tasks, especially for junior or new hire.
