Great colleagues. Good working environment.
it is difficult to try and get a permanent job status. You would have to at least have served as a contract staff for at least 1year before they consider you.
Assistant manager, business finance

A strictly regulated industry, therefore expect to be in a strict work environment.

Management associate
- Good management - Good team - Good wlb
- Average salary - Face bad traffic commuting
Financial planning intern
You are basically paid to study for the CFMAS exams: including M5, M9, M9A and HI. You also receive product and sales training by experienced professionals.
After passing all the exams (which is not too hard since you spend quite abit of your time studying), you will be encouraged to join as a Life Planner aka insurance agent, which is something I do not really like.
Business executive
There is work life balance, they place importance on it, they walk the talk. There is always discussions, not a one way traffic.
Defer decision making, career advancement opportunities are very hard to come by. We can appreciate more active engagement from senior employees.
Accounts payable
Work life balance working place
so paper work in manual form
Financial planner
worked as a financial planner over here... flexible working time, good career path, unlimited money potential, good backroom support.
as this is a sales-related role, you need to work hard to find your own client base, and work it from there. You might need to put in extra hours to see results.
Majority of the departments here have a decent working culture and environment. Employee benefits are decent as well.
Though i cannot say the same applies for all departments. If you have friends in the company, good to do a quick check about what the environment is like as it makes or breaks how you show up to work everyday.
Associate
Nice colleagues, salary on par with market rate
Too much restrictions, ways of doing things too manual and outdated management
Life planner
Lots of flexibility in work arrangement
Regulations are quite a hassle to deal with
A lof of emphasis on inner development and self leadership. Many opportunities to attend seminars to impart relevant soft skills. Able to work on your own time.
Free lessons, free exams. Good learning experience.
Prospecting. Two faced boss. No clear process or plan for newcomers.
Senior associate
The company provides work life balance
The company do not concentrates on career growth
Financial consultant
Independent, freedom and guidance are provided
Advancement is dependent on management
Assistant manager
My positive attitude and quite a number years of relevant experience makes me very suitable on the role.
Learning management system here needs to be improved so that can trace and improve agent's learning experience.
Flexible and the opportunity to earn a lot.
Needs to be self-motivated and independent.
Insurance agent
Can learn about insurance and medicine knowledge
Not any cons by present
1. Relatively less politics... quite a stable environment 2. Good career opportunities for those who shine 3. Overall supportive and understanding managers and management
1. Bureaucracy can be prevalent 2. Nobody looks at end to end alignment and optimization, each dept pretty much left to do their own things their own way..
Finance
Great work space, hybrid mood, a lot of employees benefits
Bosses tends to overlooked hardworking employees instead they like employees who know how to socialize. (office politics)
- supportive colleagues - a lot of learning opportunities - great eastern mall very convenient
- slow career growth - slow paced company

Many events for bonding with colleagues across the Company. Good effort from HR and CEO for organising festive celebration and townhall sessions. Supportive and understanding bosses. Helpful and friendly colleagues.
The location is heavily congested especially during peak hours. IT system quite old and slow.
It is an established company
Lack work life balance for certain job functions
Free time to yourself, tonnes of freedom
No fixed salary, no proper guidance from management
friendly environment, good place to work.
IT not in CBD area, far from home
