I think that working in an MNC is SO overrated.

Just my humble opinion. In a huge international organization like this you dont even meet your big big boss CEO and he/she has no idea absolutely of who you are, your organization here in some tiny asia country is just a dot in the whole pyramid structure and you are not even a dot in the whole organization. And all the positions are already fixed on your job functions, and what you do, who does what, cross functional is possible but highly limited and everything is just so niched. I guess it always boils down to the name of the organization you are working for, just like the brands that you wear. It's so fake but you feel so much better saying you have a LV bag rather than a pasar malam bag, no? But dont get me wrong I still havent bought into that yet, dont see a need to, altho the whole of Singapore has one each. Heh.

And I am conflicted everyday mornings i'm like oh mans afternoon i'm like this job is not bad. I guess the grass is always greener on the other side, or rather, the other departments. And then i'm not even sure thats what I want to do, do I want to stay in Science? I'm scared of making that change, taking that huge leap.

Decisions, decisions, decisions. And procrastination. Haha.
