Pros

Gave me a good project initially.

Cons

1) Initially agreed to do my H1B, after it got approved, owner asked me to pay for the H1 and he wanted me to pay in cash 2) I was made to pay for my own ticket to come to US 3) Management promised me one salary when I was in India and changed the offer letter to $20k lesser after I came here. I sent a request to Department of Labor about this and they agreed to investigate. I have emails showing this difference. 4) When I left after working for 10 months, company owner called and threatened to deport me saying that he knows the Congressman very well and that he has deported many other people before me. 5) President will share all personal details except SSN, to other employees. What situation you are going through, what personal problems you have everything. Even if you have good track record, he will tell to everybody that you were not doing good, that you had lot of complaints etc. But still he give you job, Very unprofessional.

I did not have any employee who came on H1 to San Antonio. We never charge for H1. We are one of the best pay master who takes pride in timely and accurately payment to our consultants. These are the comments by someone who has interest in maligning our name. These negative comments are written by the people and their friends who were got caught red handed stealing company business and money.

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.

I think this is the campaign run by the people who were let go from my office for stealing business and company money. Since they were caught red handed, out of shame they are using this media to denigrate us. we are a reputed well known company with a track record and taking care of employees, they think that by doing this new comers or unknown people will not join the company. I request glassdoor, please check the authenticity of the writer with paystub as anyone can write anything about anyone. ************************************************ Except those single digit people, you can contact not only current employees but ex-employees about me as well company. we have taken care of the employees. We have paid bench for 6 months to one year. we never delayed salary for last 17 years, since inceptions. I come from business background with ethics and honesty. we have trained the people in new technology. we have lots of initiative in career growth. we are partner with SCU, Cal Poly in imparting education in latest technology like IOT, Big data etc. *****************************************************
