NCS Pte Reviews in Singapore, Singapore Area

Former Employee – worked at NCS Pte as a contractor for less than a year

Pros – They train you on the job and you get to learn a lot of soft skills and probably, even the technical stuffs.

Cons – The job basically entails a lot of administrative and technical stuffs, and sometimes, it is really not within the scope of the job.

One thing to note is that, if you have no prior experience in customer service, it's going to be tough for you. The materials that they have for their new employees are not complete. Considering how this job requires you to be careful and meticulous, the materials are not sufficient.

Advice to Senior Management – Work life balance is important, if employees are not happy then people are not going to be as efficient as they can be. Despite collecting feedback from employee, nothing much seems to have changed after years.

Cons – The people; there hire too many incompetent people, worse yet, a lot of them are in management.

Advice to Senior Management – Revamp your hiring process, stop hiring incompetent people just because they have years of experience.

Current Employee – been working at NCS Pte full-time for more than 3 years

Pros – friendly office environment since there is no future for career progression
good for retirement
may be able to get some experience if you are lucky
the ceo looks nice

Cons – finding food can be difficult, limited places to get food
low pay

hard to get converted into perm
pretty much zero career growth for most fresh grad
do not count too much on the bonus...

Advice to Senior Management – please improve the standard of living of the current employees instead of getting new people all the time - to replace the ones who left. I am sure the money spent on those hiring agencies and interview exercises can be used to improve the morale (ps: financial situation) of the current staff

also, please increase the pay of those student intern. $500/mo will just teach those student to never ever get back to NCS / IT industry in general.
