Unlimited Time off, But no flexibility for WFH

Quality assurance engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Unlimited Time off- Request it, as long as your manager approves, you're good to go. I really love my manager and their manager.

Cons

After COVID shut everything down, we went WFH full time. Mr. Tan didn't appreciate no butts in chairs. With restrictions shutting down, unless you have a COVID related symptom, your butt needs to be in the office. Upper management seems focused on the top dollar and not your well being.
