Pros
Bangkok is great, multi-cultured environment is fun.
Cons
Stay away! No, seriously! This is not a place for talents, and juniors joining are basically ruined by learning worse practices... Here is all about emails, meetings, and micro politics. I worked here over a year, coming from a strong technical and innovative background, to find a bad working culture, bureaucracy, tribalism, code monkeys. Development is practically stopped due to bad management decisions and daily production issues. The salaries differences are just disgrace - local decent hard developers are payed peanuts, while great innovations are intercepted by young and ambitious mid level US managers and product owners, recruited by their fellows to... basically take the credit while doing politics and waiting for the yearly bonus. Some of the mid management are stuck here for few years, probably afraid to go back to the market - and for a good reason. Agoda is a bad line in your CV - assuming you're coming from a western IT market - believe me I have to find a lot of excuses while interviewing now. Sad to see a company built by the hands of the great ceo Robert Rosenstein becoming a swamp full of day-job opportunists working hard on... failing the employees!
