Pros
There are many ministries in Singapore. MHA is able to offer a diverse portfolio of functions and domains in its various departments, ranging from security, emergency services, rehabilitation, immigration, regulation, research, etc. to name the key ones. There is something for everyone who joins MHA!
Cons
Rank and file uniformed police, fire and prisons officers will generally have the advantage or be considered favorably progression and development choice positions, although scholars or management associates are considered equally for the upper management positions & development. A lot of deadwood, especially ex-military retired, occupying essential development positions and creating unhealthy cliques.
