No proper system in a miser company
HR Manager (Current Employee), Sg – June 11, 2013
Pros: can be improved when the management change
Cons: i m sorry but one of the eyesore will be brainless qa director button up her shirt
Before i joined i have already heard that so many HR managers have left this young co, at least 4 have left...you cannot made complain about the Ceo/MD, there is no proper system to feedback to London or even higher management how the singapore office/ officers fares

Finance dept, QA dept and secretaries get to know everyone's salaries!!!!!!!!!! this – more... is unheard of! Budgets are done up for fun...not for strategic directions at all...

Everything is controlled by a sole decision of the MD and the incapable QA director (who cannot even nail a 4-year edutrust award, it shows how inefficient this co. is when compared with the other PEIs)

Do email me if you need the details – less

Challenging and Rewarding
QA Manager (Current Employee), Finlayson Green – April 19, 2013
Pros: good salary & career advancements
Cons: busy environment
One of the most rewarding places I have worked. They give due consideration for skills and ability. Unlike most local companies where lack of paper qualification is always an issue to climb the ladder.

A great place to hone my skills - The job here is not for quitters. Requires a strong character who can cope with a multitude of tasks.

Treated as not one of them (Current Employee), Singapore – March 22, 2013
Pros: occasionally good staff activities probably
Cons: unlimited
I am in there to witness that most of the comments mentioned are genuine. Nothing to censor, nothing defamatory.

You are expected to be a star player, if not, you cannot survive.

All humans are born similarly, we have our unique traits. No one should be higher than anyone. If you believed in this value, then I am afriad this is not the right place – more... for you to look forward to.

Lastly, if you enjoy listening to screamings, here is the best place for it. – less

High turnover rate coupled with biased preference towards staff who are in sales or doing useless quality assurance
One of the Schools' executives (Former Employee), Sg – March 17, 2013
Pros: if you like on-the-surface pros
Cons: can i don't comment?
To be frank, our current HR manager has did his very best for the school. Thumbs up! for his world-class contribution.

Nevertheless, why is the attrition rate so high?

It is because of how our top Management biasedly love only people who directly contribute to the bottomline and those in the paper-only(nothing but theory) QA dept. The MD is so proud – more... of some of the loyal staff and quoted her favourite "disciple" all the time...

The enjoyable thing working in Singapore LSBF is its good colleagues, but they are all leaving day by day. Those who have worked so hard and value-added to the school is not even appreciated. Sad!

That is the reason why i tender my resignation but i know they are pleading me to reconsider now...will make them pay for it. – less

Please reconsider
Finance Head (Former Employee), Sg – March 13, 2013
Pros: nothing much to rave about, really
Cons: plenty
The accounts are in a mess, top management listens to people who are not experts in finance

Yet Finance refuse to do things that are related e.g ir8a matters, things linking to inland revenue, sdf, application internet banking on payroll e.t.c.

It is all about paranoid n undue stress

Very high turnover
Head of BD (Former Employee), Singapore – March 7, 2013

People in this place do not stay more than 3 months. The turnover is extremely high. This applies to even HODs. The working condition is terrible. Management treat their staff like equipments. If they quit just replace it. There is no considerable to improve the situation and condition. People keep leaving and the new comers is very confused since there – more... are no proper guidance. There is a lot of negativity in the company – less

A company not to join
Business Development (Former Employee), Singapore – March 5, 2013
Pros: good colleauges
Cons: extremely messy and not worth the pros. anyway your colleagues leaves faster than they join
Their Global Marketing Director is not professional in handling people. He does not treat people with respect. The turn over at their Singapore office is very high. People stay around less than 3 months.
Even HODs. Everything is extremely messy.

Fast paced environment
Regional Business Development Executive (Former Employee), London – January 26, 2013
Pros: great co-workers
Cons: long hours
- A typical day at work would be dealing with students and agents on a regular basis, informing and training them with regards to the new products launched
- I have improved my marketing and communication skills
- My co-workers were the same age as I was therefore communication was much easier
- The hardest part of the job was dealing with the unprofessionalism – more... of Management
- The most enjoyable part of the job was planning the trips abroad for myself and for my team – less
