Pros

Dictatorship benefits: decision making is faster with no questions. Only good for Chinese folks as they are used to dictatorship in China.

Cons

Everything is downside. But still trying to list down few - Promotions and increments happen not on your performance but depends on how much your boss like you. - Employee with number of years in Shopee are considered over folks with better skills and better industry exp. - Few dumbheads because of ass-licking of their bosses are leading stuff which they are not capable of even working on. - Folks who are working their are "yes boss" people. - Tech architecture is worst in Internet Industry across South East Asia - No politics from CEO as he is a dictator but everywhere else it is filled with Chinese politicians, would not recommend for any non chinese speakers

Dear former Manager, Thank you for taking time to leave your comments with us. We are sorry to hear that your experience working with Shopee Singapore was an unpleasant one. Whilst it is true that we hire many people from Mainland China, it is a serious accusation that the company operates by dictatorship. Nevertheless, we understand that every individual has a different work experience, and that's ok. That said, we would like to understand your pain points, and hopefully open an investigation with regards to the team and people you were working with. Would you like be open to a confidential conversation with our HR representative? If you're willing, please send us an email [hr.experience@shopee.com] and we will take it from there. Thank you, we wish you all the best. Shopee's Employer Branding team
