Joke's on you - Their focus is still on their core telco business which make up a huge portion of their revenues.

Looks like whoever sign up for their grad program can look to receive a retrenchment package in 5 years down the road

Bulk of the revenue in the telco business does not come from Singapore. It comes from Australia, India, Philippines, Indonesia, Thailand, and Bangladesh

Singtel or any telco providers are doomed. If you know about satellite technologies, you know what I am talking about. In no way they can compete with those technologies. Internet will be cheap as hell once tech is there.

It still comes from telco. The nature of a telco business is like that one, they often expand globally through acquisition etc.

But at the end of the day, doesn't seem good to be a telco firm in the current environment.

I wonder how many people they will retrench...

uhhh... I think they have shifted their focus towards other products and services like digital banking, 5G, internet of things, cyber security and more...

and they're on a hiring surge???

Nope. Look at their annual report.

Hiring surge now is a poor decision and retrenchment will soon follow.

Look at their stock price. Keep going down. Pretty sad it you invest in Singtel 20 years ago and the trend will continue.

Hahhaa so true. Especially with so much competition in this area.

IoT, 5G, cyber security, they are not the only firm doing this.

They dont have a unique competitive advantage, and are relying only on their brand name now.

I'm going to graduate from the MAP in a few months time.

This time HR says we will be posted to operational related roles first. Promotion to management will depend on performance ratings and availability of positions.

Feels like I got scammed lol.
