Fresh grads - Backend Engineer Salt (Indonesia) Employee Review

- 2 days of WFH per week (a rare blessing in the middle of Jakarta traffic). - Free lunch provided — though the portions seemed to be on their own “diet plan” day by day, and let’s just say the dream of 4 healthy 5 perfect stayed a dream. 😅 - Got the chance to handle a few big-name clients (even if the list wasn’t that long, it still looked good on LinkedIn).

- Layoffs are always lurking in the background, making the company feel more like a short-term pit stop—great for fresh graduates, but a gamble for anyone else. Job security? Think again. - In my experience, the company found creative ways around PKWT rules, so don’t count on any end-of-contract compensation. - Outdated technology stacks in several projects for big clients, with ‘innovation’ seemingly requiring top-level approval. - Standardized codebase is inherited from an old project and hasn’t been properly reviewed in ages—so “legacy” here really means ancient relic. - The laptops provided are impressively slow (you’ll learn the true meaning of patience). - No room for specialization (BE, FE, DevOps) : you’re expected to juggle everything with the same salary and, of course, zero growth in compensation.

- Hybrid Working - Free Lunch - Stable Company

- For contract no insurance and bonus - Hard to be permanent
