Pros

I wish I could write even half pro

Cons

I thank my stars that I was here for less than a year. Management and especially owner/President is dictater. I finished 1 project with him, for next project When I ask him to be genuine in doing 75-25 split and ask him for bill rate, he told me that he can replace me in no time and that I should not ask like that. Then I find my own project and resigned, he called me and threatened to deport me and that he knows Congressman and that he will write to USCIS to throw me out of the country. I don't know how he is doing business for so many years.

Bill rate, 75-25 is that a standard in the industry to apply for each and every case. This is United states of America where law supersede anyone's clout. You are so frustrated that you want to write anything against us.

Pros

decent opportunities, okay pay. pros are largely outnumbered by the cons

Cons

1) Very political company, you have to flatter the President to succeed in the company. The President's comments about people taking away his business is all NONSENSE. Some clients and employees got to know of the President's unethical practices and genuine feedback on Glassdoor and wanted to distance themselves from Dew Software and requested to work with the management team that moved out. They were ethical, friendly, approachable and genuinely cared for us employees. It is only fair to say that they took what business did not belong at Dew Software. The world over, everybody knows that Sales Executives take their customers with them. Customers always get sold on individuals and not to companies. If the President thinks they took away HIS business, he is just being kiddish and does not understand how the industry works. He expects people to do any crap if he just throws money. 2) The Management is not at all transparent on the rates. I recently resigned because I got to know that what was promised to me as a 75-25 split was not actually true. The President was paying my manager from the bill rate and underquoted the bill rate to me. The difference was about $12. Meaning I could have maybe another $18,000 to my salary if he had been truthful to me. It is because of these kind of practices that the previous management began to shield the relationships (employees and clients) that they brought in. In fact the truth of the matter is that now, many employees like myself have begun to realize that the company has no vision or genuine care and are beginning to move out of the company with better companies that care for their people. 3) Most employees are here only because of fear that the company will mess with their visas or they have money remaining to be paid. 4) Funny Salary Structure: You will be promised a salary but you will get something else in the offer letter. The difference comes to you as a bonus every quarter and is maintained in excel spreadhseets which only the President has access to. What he says is the wholesome truth. If you ask about this salary structure, you will hear from them that this is how all H1B companies work and it is for our good that we only receive an offer letter for the LCA salary. All the calculations on that spreadhseet are wrong. In this manner, the management paid me $6000 lesser than what I was supposed to get. That was my parting gift to the Dew Software charity fund! I stuck on for 3 years only because the management did not give me my I140 copy, they said it is company property which is right, but every company out there gives it on trust. I was waiting for a good opportunity and an employer who can quickly file my GC. i found one and I am happy that I took the risk and got out of this company. If you are a prospective employee and are looking for companies to do you H1B, GC etc, do yourself a favor and stay far away from this company or from Worldscape which is also their company.

1. First of all, I have introduced the client and given the responsibility to manage. I was paying handsome salary to them. They were working for Money and whatever they work it's company property. Everyone signs NDA that they should not contact the customer for one year but these people transferred the contract when they were getting paid salary from DEW. Total unethical people. 2. We do not do the business of 75-25 or any percent with H-1 as we have to pay the salary irrespective of billing is there or not. Obviously bonus is calculated based on the project and performance. 3. Most of the employees are thru references and are very close to me as I am in touch with most of the employees. Only I lost little touch because I could not understand the trick of the ex-employees who wanted me not to talk to employees. 4. We never had any issue of salary as we take pride in paying in time and accurate. You can check with even ex-employees (consultants). Overall, looking at all negative comments, it's driven by the forces who were part of dew but had to leave for being caught red handed while stealing the business and money. They have done similar things to other company also.

Pros

One needs to speak in the past tense while addressing the Pros. There used to be friendly management, they used to have good marketing, they used to have good opportunities.

Cons

All their good and productive management team have gone. The company is full of Cons, that's why they have so many Cons. I had worked here for just one project. They are just a bunch of goons. The President expects you to call him by the Suffix 'Ji', meaning respect when he is not worthy of it. CULTURE: Can be summed up in one word SAD Management: There used to be a great management team, but they moved out end of 2013. Since then it has been nothing short of a disaster. In fact the previous management was doing so good, that the current management shamefully, still uses their email ids to correspond to employees thinking that they will be able to retain employees. VISION: The President's vision is only to amass as much money from employees as possible and paying out as little as possible. PROCESS: There is no process in this company, everything happens and is controlled by one person, the President. MARKETING: Hopeless COMPENSATION: Head of the company is a miser. Enough said. PRACTICES: They boast of doing training and partnerships etc. But at the end of the day, they want you to fake your resume. They bring students from substandard universities and train them in Big Data, Salesforce, IOT and exploit the fact that the industry needs people and the students need a job. My wife recently was given training in Android. We paid money for the training, but there were no opportunities. The Management asked her to show 5 years Android apps development experience. When she was reluctant, the President called me and said that if you don't add experience to your resume, you will not get a job. But when we paid for the training they told us that she can get opportunities as a fresher. Their training is only an eyewash. Their syllabus and partnership with Santa Clara University was very inviting, so my wife went and registered without telling them that she was my wife. I thought that we could give it another chance, but no difference. they are still the same company and have the same practices. ETHICS & INTEGRITY: By now you must already know. Fill up the Blanks ______. OPPORTUNITIES: LOL!!!

First lie is we never ever charged a fee for training from Employee, there spouse, friends and referrals. If you are employee, please send the proof that we even charged a single penny from you. We have sponsored all our employees, ex-employees and their spouses. The old Management was fired for diverting company business to their own company. Getting paid salary from DEW and running parallel business. I did not come to know until employee called and told that these people are asking me to transfer my H1. They have even transferred the contract of our consultant. This whole comments are to malign our good work. We have provided training to the SCU students and our own employees. We have collaboration with lots of start up and IOT companies who are using the services of those who attended the training and paying. All who hired them are very well aware that they were in training as those industry leaders were part of teaching them so there is no issue of fake. More over, I do not involve in placing mobile, IOT. we have a separate department for Mobile initiative and we have lots of SOW project to do as a turnkey where we do not require to submit resume to anyone.
