Culture at its most TOXIC and NEGATIVE you can ever imagine - Anonymous employee UOB Asset Management Employee Review

Nobody gets fired for bad performance

Incompetent senior management, very traditional way of thinking

A place that can help you sharpen leadership and entrepreneurial skills in a fast-paced environment. There is a strong emphasis on learning how to communicate effectively with senior management and how to “tell the story” of your work in a compelling way. If you are a Senior Director, working hours can be highly flexible and you can come in after lunch or not at all, particularly in sales, where attendance is often loosely structured and schedules may vary. There is also a noticeable focus on workplace optics and perception management, including practices such as timing communications to align with expectations of dedication and effort, a good example is to set your email to send out late at night or after midnight. At the same time, investment and operational teams tend to follow more structured office hours due to the nature of trading and operational requirements. Overall, the environment combines flexibility in some functions with more rigid demands in others, depending on seniority and business needs.

Very understanding senior management, especially towards sales, as evident in the flexibility in working times. Even when clients complain, CMO will protect the sales person as they work very hard late at night. So no cons, perfect company to work for.
