Desventajas
Salary and benefits are not highly competitive Many employees rate salaries as “low compared to the industry average.” AmbitionBox rates salary & benefits 2.7/5, below the IT average. Unclear or limited career growth path Several employees mention: “No clear career path.” Growth often depends heavily on your project or manager, and progression may stagnate over time. Project quality varies — typical of large outsourcing companies As one employee put it: “Main business is offshore development … which might not be suitable for everyone.” You may experience project bench time (waiting for assignment) or work on low-challenge tasks depending on client allocation. Management and work culture can differ by team/location Some reviews mention: “Bad managers” or “Work during holidays without proper client confirmation.” In some overseas branches (e.g., Malaysia), employees said there’s favoritism toward Vietnamese staff. So, management style and fairness may depend on the specific branch or team.
