Sub plot 4: DT

I think imda as a drama has a lot of potential to revive mediacorpse haha. Confirm many pple will watch this show.

There should be a 3.1 for CC and VO, and a new sub plot 7 for SS (currently in STG, previously in DISG)

Maybe Netflix will pick up our proposal...

If AO and DT read this, I hope they do something about Spencer Chua to alleviate the suffering of his colleagues who are most definitely demoralised/traumatised by this individual. If you cannot even manage your own staff well, how can you expect to help with the tech manpower at the national level?

Thank you to the other poster for sharing your experience with what is yet another dreadful injustice taking place at human capital. You must have witnessed many atrocities and feel like you have to let it out. Please know that you are not alone and the moral arch will always favour the truth. These "small" people like June Koh cannot hope to cover up their misdeeds with lies (both on and off the forum) forever, and incompetent and sycophantic individuals like Spencer will also be exposed eventually. I would suggest a whistleblowing culture (which is practised at other established companies), if only internally within your department. You can simply send an anonymous email to share the truth about what you and your colleagues have experienced, first to your HOD and later escalate it up the chain of command if nothing is done.

Spencer chua is a colossal jerk!

Doesn't bother to shield his own people. Even when they are bullied or got arrowed to do more things, he just tell them to suck thumb. Yet, the truth is he doesn't want to fight for them and risk making himself look like a dissenter in front of the bosses

He also likes to use underhand methods to attack others...definitely a cunning person

Maybe the fact of the matter is that your skillset has nowhere to bounce to. Oops. #hardtruth

Funny you say that. I got offer already. Just nego $, which is pretty good now. So thanks for the good wishes. You are obviously a Scholar spoilt by the system. Just don't take our nation to the shitter when you become PS can? #wayangmeritocracy

Her idea of supervision was limited to chasing for deadlines, and there was no guidance, despite the fact that she had been in MCI for a few years. Drafts sent to her would come back with numerous questions which showed nothing but a lack of knowledge, and you'd be left asking IMDA colleagues for answers (she would also never point you to the right person, thus leading in some cases to a wild-goose chase as different IMDA divisions oversee different aspects of one area).

To add on to the package, she was terse at best, and often came off as rude and curt. While this could be forgiven as a personality quirk, she certainly knew how to turn on the charm around those above her.

Hope you're doing okay working with her - word to the wise: be firm and stand your ground, as she doesn't come from a place of knowledge or substance.

Oh no I'm not reporting to her. And I'm seasoned enough to handle rude behaviour. Such scholars usually overcompensate for their lack of depth in knowledge about frankly anything. All that brown nosing takes time you know!

If you are a fresh grad, please don't join IMDA. Don't make the same mistake as me thinking it can help to propel you in the tech industry. The acronym IMDA turns out to be a fking liability on my resume when I apply for jobs now.

In the spirit of SG Film Commission's 25th anniversary, presenting to y'all an award winning script that can potentially earn IMDA's next nomination at the Cannes Film Festival, or pick up by Netflix to be spun into seasons long drama series hahaha.

Theme pillars: Narcissism, incompetency, toxic leadership, love and betrayal

Main plot: LCH

Sub plot 1: AO

Sub plot 2: JK
Sub plot 2.1: JK VS. SCHOLAR
Sub plot 2.2: JK THROW ACE JUSTIN UNDER THE BUS
Sub plot 2.3: JK wreaking havoc in media cluster maybe??! (Awaiting for plot development)

Sub plot 3: THE ENTIRE HR
Sub plot 3.1: VO and CC

Sub plot 4: DT

Sub plot 5: SPENCER CHUA

Sub plot 6: MEDIA LEADERS (Awaiting for plot development)

Sub plot 7: SS

.... there you go. I feel like since JK used to be the media cluster director and reported directly to ACE Justin, there shld be more tea being spilled. Like which D & DDs being thrown under the bus in the media cluster.
