Pros

Decent compensation for Thailand Tech centric culture Pretty diverse workforce with a lot of diverse background and experiences

Cons

Toxic culture Lot of local thais have groupism among each other making it more difficult to succeed. Also their culture overvalues groupthink and highly looks down upon disagreements, making feedback and technical discussions all but impossible without it blowing up in your face. Your life here also depends on the team and manager, it's gotten a bit better recently.
