Pros

- Has some very smart & technical skilled people. - Good opportunities to work with world class partners, going onsite to other countries. - Young workforce from top management to entry level. - The managers and developers are mostly weak or incompetence, the good side is that you are easy to become a rising star. - Pay well to key people

Cons

- No clear vision on top management, handicapped by short-sighted targets. - Company leadership is terrible, no defined core values, keep trying mimic other companies instead of keep learning and lead the company by their own culture and characters. - After quickly increasing the workforce, management became a mess, and company is trying to solve it by added more processes, more departments, recruited more managers who are also fake and incompetence. - Top managers don't want to listen or discuss directly with employees. They focus on grow the company in size of workforce, amount of clients, total revenue, but they are clueless in improving productivity, people quality. - Sometimes company asks employees to do some lengthy and stupid surveys without any feedback and consequences. - Company keep throwing heartless parties, childish events to try to entertain and motivate employees instead of changing how the company works. I think they are wasted energy and time. It reflects the shallow mindset. - Most senior employees are fed up and gave up to hope to change anything. - Office is too crowed and noisy, narrow working space. Network is not stable. - The managers and developers are mostly weak or incompetence, the bad side is that you will feel annoyed and demotivated by working or contacting with them. - Not easy to get in touch with top skilled people. They are too busy with all the work.

Pros

- Flexibility for office time. - Fast in terms of company development. - Big projects to learn compared to VN companies. But big projects also mean learning small parts. - Grow fast if you understand the manager's needs and wants. - Free food and happy hour. - If you need first time oversee experience. OK.

Cons

- Unorganized workflow in teamwork (also partly due to the flexibility). - Not fast in terms of personal development. Learning depends on the team you join, but if you learn more normally you'll have to work x 2-5 harder without complaining, assisting all the other people all the time as 24/7 (or 996) culture. Can work normal but you'll not be promoted (or you have to be a super star outside by yourself as the internal colleagues and boss won't help you learn that much) - No clear framework in judgment of career growth in SPA/performance review even if it happens twice a year. The same thing as learning happens if you want to grow. Title might not equal knowledge, skills, or attitude. - Social insurance is not fully equal to salary, only based on the country's minimum wage. Company trip needs extra payment from employees. - Lots of OT, some without charge. - Office standards are low, sexual harassment can happen to anyone female. - Managers are not well-trained and normally are promoted as they change the structure, or have more people in so they need more managers, but no skills/certs/qualifications of managers.
