Pros
1. Joined in 2024 when the environment was still relatively manageable. 2. Team members were generally supportive and easy to work with. 3. The role originally offered remote work flexibility, which was one of the main reasons I accepted the position. 4. Had opportunities to join client discussions directly as a developer, which gave exposure beyond purely technical work. 5. Learned to handle multiple responsibilities and gained experience working across different areas.
Cons
Things changed significantly after the management restructuring in 2025. 1. Remote work flexibility was gradually removed, and employees were suddenly expected to come to the office regularly despite originally being hired under remote arrangements. 2. No travel allowance or transportation support was provided after the switch to office work, which increased personal expenses considerably. 3. Did not receive any increment after the first year despite taking on more responsibilities and client-facing work. 4. Salary payments were frequently delayed, creating stress and uncertainty every month. 5. Policies and expectations often changed without proper communication or discussion. 6. HR and management communication frequently felt unprofessional, dismissive, and overly aggressive instead of constructive. 7. Employees were expected to stay reachable after working hours, during leave, and sometimes even on weekends. 8. Benefits and employee welfare were almost nonexistent.
