Ventajas
Forced to give a smile on the surface. Still not too bad for Non-Execs.
Desventajas
Situation at Ang Mo Kio Bus Depots (which affected other depots in Woodlands & Kranji) For Execs (treated worse than factory workers) - 18-hour work days, 7 days a week. Ridiculous response required to multiple SMS, Whatsapp groups from 6+ AM til 1 AM. Minimum 15 meetings per week, 4-5 meetings per day. - Non value-add discussions on Whatsapp group after working hours, requiring response. - Elitist War-mongering/Mafia mindset at Bus Ops management team, wanting 'whole world' (other departments) to report to them for their Battle Order formation. - Adversarial behavior from Bus Ops senior management with lots of shameful open infighting among senior management, treating others like 'Enemy combatants' . - Expert at ':Leading soldiers on how to charge in battle', just don't ask them what to do after the 'soldiers died' (resigned). , always fighting with managers & SM from Automotive maintenance services and other departments. No work-life balance for Bus Operations & Automotive Maintenance Services. Can't even have a proper dinner & social life, with SMS keep coming. Really pity the MD of SMRT Roads for having such vicious senior management team akin to Siberian tigers devouring Mgrs & Execs for breakfasts. Challenge remains on how is he going to tame them. - Some of above statements might be an exaggeration while under-emphasizing in others but the underlying issues are real and deeply-rooted. - Family life totally destroyed with, spouses/parents/children complaining neglect.
