Chase Software Developer reviews

Work life balance for Asia Regions.

The culture is still very corporate. The dress code (at least where I was) was business casual. This is pretty minor, but it is annoying as a developer since most tech companies are a lot more casual. Pay is tied to end-of-year performance reviews. In my case, this meant I spent a year with much lower pay than what I should have been getting, since I was not given meaningful assignments until early in my second year. There is a lot of bureaucracy standing in the way of getting anything done. This can lead to not enough work to go around, and you end up doing side-projects and busy work. There are a lot of 'town halls' and other corporate rah-rah sessions that you are pressured to attend and are largely a waste of time. They recently moved us from laptops to a VM system called "Liquid VDI". These can be very slow and sometimes buggy which slows you down and can be very frustrating.
