Vantaggi

- Allow to work remote 3 of 4 weeks in a month. - Not the worst salary if you insist on it.

Svantaggi

- Worked 2.5 years remotely. The manager persuaded me to come and work from Bangkok. I arrived, the next day I was told that I would be fired. - They promised to reimburse $1,500 for my expenses for relocating me and my family to Bangkok. As a result, they deducted income tax (income on the reimbursement of expenses that I incurred, what the hell?) + paid me at the baht / dollar rate a month ago. As a result, I received $1000 instead of the promised 1500%. I spent $2,000 on the flight, not to mention other expenses. - The CEO only dreams of the company's IPO. Over the past year, company has been splitted 2 times, all in order to bring newly created companies to IPOs. It smells. - CTO is another petty tyrant. Working in this company you will have 0 opportunities to prove yourself. All decisions are made by management, you cannot influence them, you just need to implement what they told you. If their decisions are bad, even on the technical side, for which you as a technical specialist are responsible, you will be to blame for this, and not those who made this decision and forbade objecting to it. - Several other people were fired with me, whose work was visible. Inside, they all had the courage to say that the decisions of the leadership are not the best. Only the talking heads remained. - My salary was 100k baht. Then they threw 20k butt for those leadership. Paying extra for those leads is not worth it, too much headache for so little money. - My co-workers doing the same were getting between 30k and 60k. - Salary indexation - once I was indexed by 1% or something like that. - The company is extremely greedy. You come to the team building, which are arranged during the office week, and pay some extra 100-200 baht for the event. - Periodically, some "important people" come. You must attend such events. It got ridiculous that lists were compiled of who would go / would not go. Who did not come should explain himself. Maybe you need to invite people who are interesting to your employees? Organize events that are of interest to your employees? - Opportunities for growth in technical terms are very limited. If you are a savvy specialist, find yourself something better and don't waste your time.

Risposta di Amity

We appreciate your honest feedback and insights and would like to address your concerns. Some of the comments were not accurate and don't reflect our continuous efforts to create an inspiring and innovative workplace. We recognize that the sudden change might have been unexpected and unsettling. We apologize for any inconvenience caused by this miscommunication. We can assure you that we have already worked to update and improve our relocation experience and reimbursement policies over the last months to ensure such situations are avoided. We are proud to be an international company that offers top support to its expats and the feedback in the last months has been consistently high. Regarding the team building events we organize, allow us to clarify any misconceptions as we never charge our employees to be able to participate in our company events. On the contrary, we allocate a significant budget to provide complimentary lunches, snacks at the office, and organize happy hours to encourage a healthy work-life balance and foster team bonding. The payment you are referring to is probably related to a few occasions when we were fundraising money to support NGOs (for example working towards earthquake relief efforts in Turkey or providing humanitarian aid to Ukraine). We would like to clarify that any donations made for these causes were entirely voluntary and not obligatory for our employees. Our intention in organizing such charitable initiatives is to encourage social responsibility and provide opportunities for our employees to contribute to causes they feel passionate about. We are proud of our talented teams and the leadership that is contributing every day to make Amity a leading and innovative company in the region and internationally. We are aware and focused on keep improving the company however we would also like to invite you to consider that as a startup we have an incredible number of people that have progressed in the company for 5,7 and more years. This is an important sign of progression and loyalty. We are sorry to hear that you did not enjoy the company events as much as our other colleagues. At Amity, we are dedicated to build an inspiring environment for our diverse and multinational workforce and inviting various speakers to come to share their personal or professional experience is just one of many kinds of cultural initiatives we promote in our workplace. All our employees are always welcome to nominate the next guests or suggest their own activities (like sport or other types of clubs) thus we'd love to hear from you in case you have ideas for initiaves closer to your own interest. Our aim is to create a diverse range of activities that appeal to the interests and preferences of our entire workforce. Thank you and should you have any other suggestions the People team is open for further suggestions.
