Pros

- Good working environment, has its own building, near to MRT in central region, huge office space for your setup, office is clean and tidy. - Can meet many colleagues within or outside of the location. Is not fair to say all teams or leaders are bad, so it depends on your luck. - Good place to learn some domain specific skills: CAN bus, diagnostics, AUTOSAR standard, safety standard, ASPICE, and some process. - Low barrier to entry embedded software, especially for fresh graduate. - Good place to stay as a management guy if you lack of technical skills and good in political skills.

Cons

- Using C programming if/else can develop almost 80% of the functionality. Hence not much embedded skills can learn from it, unless you are the architect. - OK benefits only if compare with small company, relatively low-paid in the Singapore (it make sense if you look at the point above). - Many incompetent middle level management (2 out of 3) in those people/project manager, they are promoted because they stay longer than you. - Extremely heavy workload for those engineers at the bottom level, good people normally will just leave due to unfair treatment from useless manager. - Automotive industrial outlook is not so good and the company may not be profitable in the future.

Pros

Great work life balance and culture. If you want to work at a place that will provide a low stress, flexible position with amazing people, this place is no doubt one of the best in that area.

Cons

Pay is low compared to other companies in the area and the cost of living in the area is high. They seem to be outsourcing jobs to cut costs, so job security is not the best right now.
