Pros: I liked the flexibility for software development projects. Most weeks, my hours were a solid 40, which is great. The Hanoi office also supports a hybrid work model, which really helps manage personal stuff.
Cons: Sometimes deadlines get a bit tight, especially close to release. That can mean a few late nights, but it's not super common. Vacation approval could be faster too.
Advice to Management: Try to improve the vacation approval process so it's less last-minute for employees.

Pros: The company has some steady client projects, which is good for the current workload. As a Software Engineer, I always had tasks to do, so I wasn't just sitting around. For a tech startup, the project pipeline is decent.
Cons: Job security here feels a bit up and down. Project durations can be unpredictable, making me wonder about long-term stability. There aren't many clear paths for internal role changes, which adds to the uncertainty for remote WFH folks.
Advice to Management: Management should focus on clear long-term project planning and communicate better about future business strategy. Offer more internal mobility options to keep good talent.

Pros: Being a Software Engineer here, the hybrid work setup is pretty good. We get a couple of WFH days, which is nice for appointments. Management in the Hanoi office usually understands if you need to shift hours.
Cons: It's strictly hybrid, so no full remote options exist for most engineering roles. There isn't much flexibility around core hours, making different time zones tough. Project deadlines often mean your flexible hours get canceled.
Advice to Management: Consider offering full remote options for some roles. Be clearer about flexible hours during crunch times, so expectations are managed better.
