They were all awful. A quick google and you can find many bad reviews about them too. Most of the startup companies in Singapore are rated very poorly.

OP I strongly advice against joining tech startups.

People join FAANG to further their careers and work hard in those companies in their early years. If you can't join FAANG, next best bet is F500 companies.

This forum really needs a moderation system, misleading posts like this are very harmful to tech fresh grads and freshers looking to get into the market.

Please do some reflection, thanks.

Agreed but you forgot to add that having Big N / F500 companies on your resume is far better than some rando startup. Just becos you get paid highly in your startup doesnt mean its future proof anyway.
