Pros

Babylon claims it wants to bring healthcare to everyone - only true if it's profitable and convenient to do so.

Cons

The idiots in the Babylon APAC office unwittingly offended one of the most prominent and respected family in Asia. It's not just some powerful family but it's THE Kwek/Kuok family that also has close tie with THE Ng family who are the richest and most powerful in the Forbes Asia List. The Babylon middlemen got blacklisted even before they can make any deal in Asia.

Thank you for taking time to write a review. As a current employee with these concerns we would encourage you to discuss this with your leaders. Babylon would for the purposes of this review, like to address this statement which is inaccurate and defamatory in nature. Babylon APAC senior management team has never interacted or spoken to the stated prominent families mentioned at any time, and therefore would not have been involved in a situation which allowed for an offence to be made to these respectable families. Though the nature of Babylon’s APAC commercial business does involve strategic discussions with government authorities and influential leaders across Asia, Babylon’s senior management always adopt a mindful and respectful approach to all discussions, and any such discussions are confidential in nature.

I had the chance to work with some of the most brilliant individuals and it was a great learning experience in a fast paced growth environment

Cons

CEO/COO had a completely different concept of what this company's identity was from what we were actually doing.
