Pros

free food - but office location far from property, cannot enjoy the food.

Cons

If you can see this post. "Revenue Optimization" department, casino data analyst, don't join!!! 1. job description and interview, make you feel like will do some high tech and interesting projects. But real day to day work is like, run some code previously wrote by someone, and mannually check a lot of things, and copy paste things use excel...but can practice some SQL and Tableau. 2. super hierarchical structure. and manager don't know much modern technical skill, can not guide you through anything, but only assign you request from other department. And never give you any chance to meet any stakeholders, or learn more business knowledge (which is very important for a data analyst to give better result) 3. ED trust someone he like very much. leave everything for them to manage. ppl take credits from each other. allocate very low kpi evaluation for no reason. 4. and because the manager don't know much technical things, and trust the ones she like very much. if you can talk very well, then can bluff them you did a lot of things. And the department also bluff other department we did a lot of things using some high level models. But it is not. a lot of things mannually somehow decide something, or we present to other ppl we did but actually not, or the code wrote wrongly if you look into it. 5. someone may be extend probation, just because the manager doesn't like them. 6. A devastating work experience. like, almost 10 ppl resigned during past 1 or 2 years, nearly no one left alr. So if you join now, it will be a disaster... in a word, manager has no technical skills or management skills, but play ppl around. ppl in a higher position, they know about all the things, but they just don't care. if you cannot find other better jobs, can try, but do remember to timely seek for other opportunities. Once you feel something uncomfortable, just have the courage to run away from it. for a fresh graduate, most of the time you don't know what should be the correct way, but trust your feelings...

Pros

Staff Benefits are reasonably competitive. A Big Name Organization like Marina Bay Sands is always a welcome inclusion on your resume. Some departments do have better management and opportunities for promotions than others.

Cons

Promotions, increments and bonus are not transparent. Requests to handle transfers are also unprofessionally handled by the HR. Full disclosure, but I was hoping to request an internal transfer from my department. However, the process at which I had to go about it was restrictive and insensitive, making the process an uncomfortable and almost impossible endeavor. One is expected to disclose their INTENTION to transfer to their current bosses even before HR would agree to arrange for an interview with said other department. This comes with unnecessary risks as an employee, as it A) does not 100% guarantee the interview with the other department would be successful, B) Opens the interview to potential internal sabotage C) potentially jeopardizes the relationship with their current boss, should the employee still choose to remain in their current position. I say it is unreasonable to demand this, as it is not a requirement imposed on interviewees that are writing in from other companies. There needs to be more sensitivity when handling internal transfers rather than concern for head count , because with lack of options within the same organization, employees would be driven to seek employment elsewhere.

Pros

It's a good brand to include in your resume, given that the rest of the world don't know what's really going on in there.

Cons

When the company is too big, it's tough to be heard, or be heard genuinely, that is. Most management people pretend they care but they only care about sales figures, themselves, and neglect the wellbeing of the very same staff who may have worked so hard to get them closer to their unrealistic targets. They talk about mental health but no one is really bothering to check on employees. Promotion is also dependant if the superiors like you, which can be tiring because you constantly have to feel like you're walking on eggshells around specific few person. If they like you, anything they say can be used as a reason you get promoted. If they don't like you, anything they say also an be used as a reason why you weren't promoted.
