3-4% reduction (per Darren email) is not the same as 3-4% layoffs. There is heavy recruitment in India which means a lot more than 3-4% layoffs in the high cost countries where layoffs are taking place.
Let’s go Singapore! 60 min countdown to the communication… may everyone get what they want… a job in this uncertain climate, or ang pow for those who have been waiting
@7yr0
Article stating mainly in Canada and EU tho. Not sure if SCGX will be impacted.

@86nh no lah it’s our high SGD pay… half of Americans but at least triple of Indians
Imagine the folks who went on business trips spending large amount of money, now we are facing the consequences
round 2 of SG study. Manuf will not be spared
@86kz most likely it’s HBF people… PS, Supply Chain, support functions
I have received a meeting with process manager after 10, does it mean Singapore study again?
3-4% of global workforce to be laid off. How many will SGCX have.. hmmm..
10am tomorrow… LFG
Singapore check mailbox… our announcement is tomorrow morning 10AM
When will be the Singapore announcement?
Wow worldwide EM Layoff 2.0 is here
@84mk maybe nmpt skillset is not as valued, if we look outside our pay is still competitive. In other words, we have been overpaid for years. Next destination Saudi, like some folks who already went.
OT cuts for NMPTs are synonymous to hammering nails into a coffin. Base salary isn’t great and they rely a lot on OT and weekend work to have a respectable take home pay.
@84cf think is cut OT .
@849z wah lao... so no paycut for nmpt lah? just our resident troll talking co-k
mpts already cut in many ways you can't see. It's the management that needs to cut. NMPT here btw
@847a how come for paycut? Confirm?
Nmpts pay cut 5%, mpts should lead by example, pay cut at least 10%
When you start turning off the A/C, removing computer monitors, etc. it means that the refinery-chemical facility is for sale.
When you are interviewing for a job, you look for the following:
(1) is landscaping current?
(2) is the grass and tshrubs being watered?
(3) is the paint flaking off tanks, towers, the central office building. etc.?
(4) are there cracks in the sidewalks that are not being repaired?
(5) is there free coffee at the coffee bar?
(6) do you have to bring your own cup to the coffee bar?
(7) is there two-ply toilet paper in the restrooms or 1-ply?
...
If the answer is YES to most of these questions during your interview and walk around the facility, the asset is for sale.
If people forget to follow cost saving rule, 1st timer verbal warning, after 1st time PIP…
Save cost by cutting electricity cost and at the same time can cut human cost as well..
World class company move😂😂😂
Might as well decommission all coffee machine water coolers and ice machine
They also can consider to switch off the A/C at operations shelter as well.. since ops tech not supposed be there most of the time…
Switch off the A/C at Office as well change to fan, and remove all the additional monitor screen as it is additional electricity cost.
One head why need to have 2 or 3 monitor…
Implementing earth hour,since 12 to 1pm is lunch time, build a circuit breaker to switch off every damme thing e.g lights, fan, and all the computers… everyday can save additional money…
Sat and sun there will be no electricity power to office since no one supposed to be back… save additional cost!!!!
I heard they gonna start charging for PPE and toilet usage.
Charge parking at site la, I dare you, lol
Didn’t they cut the contract staff for BTC, remove the day bus, cut NMPT salary and remove the canteen food subsidies?
This should be a good indication
start liao reconfig study… can see them all over the plant last week.
sg reconfig = downsizing? = layoff?
Not sure SG reconfiguration started or not, one thing’s for sure India sales office job title needs reconfiguration. “ Full time interviewer”. So previously part time worker taking full time pay?
Has the Singapore reconfiguration started?
Start of PIP purging season
so quiet here, hows all your ranking result?
pi---l, artillery, machine g-n or cannon king? veteran gunner sia
Another veteran gunner leaves CRISP… gone are the days. With these seasoned voices fading out, young engineers really need to ask themselves: is this still a place to grow?
Anyone knows if fail the pip, will there still be a severance package option or leave without any payouts? Thanks in advanced
Bus is officially gone. Is anyone offering grab hitch?
@80ng heard this was a myth, then again being PIP-ed 3 times in 5 years is probably a signal for you to leave anyway
If someone has been placed on a PIP three times within five years, does that typically result in termination?
Certainly! I've noticed many people leave and get promoted to senior management roles, where they gain significantly more power and higher salaries. Down here, it's comfortable but offers little growth for most, unless you're one of the select few identified as hi-po!
