      Pros

      Very well structured company in terms of processes and forward-looking mindset from our HQ. There is much to learn from the company and I must say that some colleagues are truly driven. Pretty ok work life balance, if you follow the lifestyle of your parachute-d colleagues.

      Cons

      The management team here stays in their ivory tower and very disconnected from their people, for many years now.. All the talks about employee development is a farce as you need to be a from thier global / local MA programme or assigned from another country. Most of the local staff in Hilti Far East are just supporting characters and pushed extremely hard, paid the least when compared to parachute-d staff. A very top heavy company, especially region office. Even within the region office, staff are disconnected except for 1 group who originates from the same place. This is a place to shout about your achievements without actually having to do much about it. You just have to be really good at marketing yourself to excel here. For most, it is a good place to learn and get out if you are not under any programme or the management's radar, which is an actual fact. Just look at the exodus of talents between 2016 and 2017.

      Pretentious culture

      Regional manager

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good for learning about global practices and concepts.

      Cons

      Bad management at regional office and very political. The region head only wants people to say pretentious things to inflate his own ego. Needs to be of a certain culture to make it. East Asian values of working is definitely not appreciated

      About AM role

      Account manager - singapore
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      1. There are 5 trades in Singapore - Building Constructions, Civil Engineering, Steel & Metal, Interior Finishing and Heat & Air condition etc - most employees would told you if you are in BC trade is the best 2. Flexible working hours

      Cons

      1. Not everyone is suitable to work in the construction site if you are the AM - this is because you need to be on site most of the time and you must ask yourself whether you want to be in this working environment - the turn overrate for AM in Hilti is high. 2. The basic salary is Low 3. Don’t be fool to believe you will get high comm if you work hard; it’s really depend market. Basic salary is important. 4. Best not to work as a AM role in Hilti.
