Balanced Work-Life & No-drama Colleagues
Pros
1. Working Hours: Strict 8 working hours. 5 days a week. The company would not ask you to work overtime. 2. Leaves Policy: Leaves are approved immediately given they within reason. My manager didn't ever ask the purpose of the leaves. 3. Colleagues and Culture: Fellow software developers act very professionally. No office drama. Reach out to them within the office hours & they'll be more than happy to help.
Cons
1. Pay/Bonus: The company consistently pays salaries on time. However, over the past two years, annual salary increments have been modest despite positive performance reviews. Bonuses are paid once a year and are capped at the amount of your current salary. 2. Career Advancement: Remote workers have very limited opportunities to advance at this robotics company because all the hardware is located in the office. Career growth is tied to how well one can integrate & work with the new hardware as well as existing product lineup.
