Review Yes4All
Quỵt lương thưởng của nhân viên, không trọng dụng nhân tài. Tìm đủ mọi cách để hút máu nhân viên rồi ép cho nghỉ việc. (RW)
CEO chỉ biết ăn xổi thôi chứ không có chịu đầu tư dài hạn nào cả. Nền tảng kiến thức và kĩ năng chuyên môn ở đây không có, rất kém chuyên nghiệp. (RW)
Môi trường công ty cực toxic. Các sếp thì trình độ không có suốt ngày phe phái rồi đâm nhau làm nhân viên gánh. (RW)
