As a permanent role, in terms of salary, benefits, working environment and working hours, they are both at least 30% lower than the market average. If you were a fresh graduate, it would take you almost three years to catch up to what your classmates were making (both salary and benefits) when they first graduated. For example, $16000 for programmer in 2022, mon-fri 9-6 and alternate week sat 9-1, first year 8 AL and max 14 6 years of service. For those current employee or those who plan to join this company, especially for fresh graduate, don't stay long. I highly encourage you to keep interviewing while working at this company. Once you receive offers from other companies, resign as soon as possible. Apart from that, it is a common problem for all HK funded small companies: NO best practices!! Imagine they are developing using only master branch, NO unit tests, NO automation (manually SSH to a machine, pull the code and run command to start the app), hardcoding credentials and push to git, etc. You lose the opportunity to learn things, becoming less competitive, making you harder to pass interview for other companies. As an IT professional, I hope you all stay strong, say NO to mean companies.

- cheap salary but require you to be a full stack developer (how cheap? my next(current) company's boss said I was excessively underpaid, and offered me > 50% increment of salary...) - hire a remote Nepalese developer and offer him 10 hkd/hour salary - smart casual, no short trousers - basically you won't get any benefits (eg. medical card, snack)
