Pros

2 weeks on, 1 week off schedule. Great benefits, you get as much overtime as you can handle when they're busy. Half of the time you get paid to sleep (yes that's accurate). They'll give you CDL training and roughly 130hrs per week. Typically around 17.50 starting pay and more if you have a CDL or relative experience in the oilfield. Bare in mind that most of your pay is overtime, so it adds up fast.

Cons

On call 24/7 during your 2 weeks. Usually you only come home to shower and re-stock on food. You will often share a truck with another driver or someone who doesn't have a cdl yet, so DBAD or you'll be stuck with someone you hate for 2 weeks straight. Also, as with many oilfield jobs if there is a slowdown you'll likely be out of work. So save your money and be prepared.

Pros

Big cubicles, shuttle bus, coffeeshop just behind the building

Cons

Odd working hour 7.30am to 4.30pm. Sometimes need to attend night meetings. But still need to wake up very early to catch shuttle bus due to office location at Tuas. Very political working environment. People just don't help each other. Either they are too busy or just being selfish.

Pros

One of the few PhD level jobs in Singapore. No company limit on EP. Reasonable starting pay.

Cons

In charge by dysfunctional managers know little about both real technical and technology management. Chinese-dominated environment and working culture. Little respect to staff, poor career prospect and heavy overworking expected. Managers steal credits, lie and threat to employees. Intentionally giving less pay raise and benefits so they can pocket bigger bonus. Generally 30% less base pay than same job in US. Only promotes or treat personal friends nice. Employee rights very unclear. Way too many bosses and reporting both locally and around the world. No experienced mentor to guide beginners. No clear focus of work, shift tasks and multiple tapping all the time. Experience here hardy transferable to other industry opportunities. Research work does not yield publication for returning to university easily also. Insecure job due to company vulnerability.
