Zing Reviews

Nothing to be honest N/A.

Exploitative Placement Scheme: Hires 5-6 placements annually, pays minimum wage while billing clients exorbitant rates. Placements end up principal developing significant projects for pennies, effectively funding the company while higher management simultaneously burns project budgets and valuable time on pointless activities. Competence Seems Unvalued/Unnoticed: Management doesn't appear to particularly value or even notice competence. Any progression feels more tied to 'time served' than actual skill or contribution, and there's no meaningful recognition, bonus, or other reward for being capable. Deceptive Management & CEO: Initial friendliness is a mask. Expect lies and false promises, especially regarding return offers and the company's financial health. They promised our group return offers were likely just weeks before cutting 80% of us with zero transparency. Dishonest Hiring/Firing: Return offers are rare. Strong evidence they filter out or cut placements needing visas last-minute under vague pretenses (happened across multiple cohorts). Two who did get offers were fired months later. Abysmal Technical Standards: Work is redundant, relying on hacking together old, poor-quality code from an outsourced Indian team mixed with rushed code from inexperienced placements. Quality control is non-existent. Mostly reusing the same basic concepts repeatedly. Unsustainable Business: Sales consistently overpromises, leading to rushed, low-quality deliveries. The core business seems to be repackaging the same inadequate solutions. The company appears to be financially dying despite the huge margins on placement labor, likely due to incompetent higher management and investor pressure milking it dry. Unfair to Everyone: Junior developers are exploited. Clients are likely overpaying for solutions built by minimum-wage trainees using hacked-together code. ZERO BENEFITS EXCEPT THE 1 POUND "TREATS BOX" IN THE OFFICE
