Pluspunten

Compensation was good but that's about it.

Minpunten

Don't be deceived by all the positive reviews. Most folks that were let go were not allowed to right bad reviews or they wouldn't get their severance pay. The problem is the leadership team. Mainly the CEO and COO. New grads who got lucky with an idea prior to COVID. They have no real work experience and it shows with their management and so called "strategy". Basically if things don't go well, they just fire folks to take the blame and eat the cost so they still remain in good faith with investors. Company isn't going to go that far with their last round of funding being over 4 years ago and not doing anything with AI.

Pluspunten

Good work life balance. Company is experimenting with AI more than the rest of the industry (low bar). Company has a decent moat that will last for a few years at least, not under crazy cost pressure like a lot of other startups. If you are looking for decent compensation and a less fast paced engineering job, this is a good match.

Minpunten

Executives are ambitious but lack a product vision that can deliver the growth an IPO takes. They can't blame their product vision, so expect wild swings in projects, roadmap turnover and treating employees like children who don't have a work ethic. In engineering specifically, there is no growth path for U.S. based engineers. The senior Thai engineering leadership will not engage with the U.S. side and the U.S. side is not thought of as performing well in general. There has been no promotions on the U.S. side and strong turnover.

Thank you for taking the time to share this feedback. You're right that our roadmap evolves frequently. As a startup, change is part of how we operate and learn. Regarding the cross-cultural dynamic between our U.S. and Bangkok teams, we take this feedback seriously. Building a cohesive team across two offices is something we're continuously working on. It looks like you may be a current employee, so we strongly encourage you to reach out to our People & Culture team so we can take actionable steps to grow as one company. On career growth specifically, our leadership team is actively building out career journeys to give every member of our team a clearer path forward. Thank you again for taking the time to leave this review.
