IMDA (under MCI)

According to my friend, tesa has super high turn over rate because the culture and the boss is toxic. The demoralization can be felt within weeks you are there because the boss has anger management issue and has the habit of "name and shame" you infront of internal and external parties. It just makes one feel so super unappreciated after long hours of working. People can't wait to leave for the sake of their mental well-being? In my point of view, i am actually quite shocked when my friend told me about such bosses because i thought such era should have long gone? And working in public service before we have a code of conduct to follow and i seriously doubted the capability of HR getting rid of such bosses.

Many people i spoke to agree that imda in general is working super long hours and is common to work past mid night because directions keep changing and so are the working document (e.g. PowerPoint) that is required to be submitted or presented to the management. It is all about amending papers and ppt to what the bosses would like it to be. The way my friend spoke about it makes me feel like, everyone is required to be a marketeer.

TPO and HCD is so notorious that they had to change names to JS and TD. But the Ds remain unchanged.

Anyone knows what's the salary range of a Manager and Senior Manager in iMDA?

I have joined IMDA for about 5-6 months and the leadership is really bad. CE is quite cmi like what others have been saying here. Has problems understanding graphs and stats which are easily understood by fresh grads. My colleagues and I had to spend lots of time and effort to handhold him. Can't wait to go after I receive AWS.
