Milieu Insight

“From the very start, we were determined to create a collaborative and dynamic culture that binds each member of the Milieu team and one that respectfully values work life-balance. It's always been important that we create an environment where each employee can feel safe and be at their best to thrive - An environment where each employee is well taken care of beyond just work. Being part of the Milieu family means you're part of a tight knit team, where the vision of what we are trying to build and what is actually happening in every part of the business is moving as one. To simply put - At Milieu, we set you up to grow and succeed. As we expanded quickly through the region, even more so during the Covid-19 pandemic, maintaining employee welfare and the Milieu culture always stood a priority, as we needed to set the tone that would cascade through every level in the organisation across 6 countries. I believe our Milieu culture has significantly impacted our firm’s effectiveness, creativity and ethics, and now being Great Place to Work-Certified reflects that we are moving in the right direction. This recognition is a testament to the hard work of our employees and our commitment to the Milieu culture. From setting up a Milieu Culture Community that organises frequent social bonding activities, to promoting open communication and a safe space platform to voice feedback, to providing overall employee wellbeing support - these are just some of the many initiatives that have enhanced employee engagement. Even throughout the ever-changing and challenging nature of the pandemic, our team has always remained focused and resilient. The passion and drive of every employee has shaped our Milieu culture, and this persists only because our entire team acts in ways that uphold our values, principles and camaraderie.”

Gerald Ang, CEO

“We have a people-first culture here at Milieu, as we believe a highly engaged and motivated team is the foundation for a company to thrive. As we continue to expand and evolve, we’ve ensured our organisational processes are dynamic as we strive to challenge and grow every employee to reach their potential, whilst always keeping true to our culture.
There’s transparent and open communication between leadership, management and all team members, where everyone’s voice is consistently being heard and we believe in always celebrating wins and milestones, whether big or small. Some of the initiatives include quarterly employee engagement feedback sessions, individual department HR led focus groups and also live Q&As during our fortnightly company wide all hands sessions.
Working in Milieu has shown me what being part of a fully synced and tight knit team feels like, where the vision of what we are trying to build and what is actually happening in every part of the business is moving as one, helping and guiding each other as we go.
It is an honour for Milieu Singapore to be awarded with the Great Place to Work certification and we look forward to building on our people-first culture. We’re excited for our expansion, getting the rest of the countries that Milieu is in Great Place to Work certified too!”

Derek Tan, Senior Human Resources Manager
