Pros

Lovely team and colleagues. I have made some good connections during my time there.

Cons

During my time at Statrys, I experienced a highly toxic and unhealthy work environment. Despite the advertised flexible culture and perks like Tuesday free lunches, the reality was far from positive. The leadership style is micromanaging and disrespectful. I witnessed the CEO openly belittle employees during meetings, often raising his voice and adopting an extremely condescending tone. The co-owner frequently used unprofessional language, micromanaged excessively, and created a stressful atmosphere. The workplace culture fosters fear rather than collaboration, and employees are treated more like schoolchildren than trusted professionals. Unfortunately, these issues overshadow any positive aspects the company may offer. I would not recommend working here unless significant cultural improvements are made. Don't be misled by surface-level benefits. The environment is far from supportive or empowering.

Pros

- Competitive salary compared to most Thai companies. - 20 days of annual leave + 3 weeks of WFH per year (though difficult to use freely due to management interference).

Cons

- The CEO has displayed alarming behavior, including yelling, banging on the table, and threatening me “I’d headbutt you if it were up to me”. Attendance is strictly monitored via face recognition, with rigid enforcement of punctuality and breaks. - No job security: Employees are treated as replaceable, regardless of the value they bring. I saw people being fired without notice or warnings, even though the contract stated a two-warning policy. - Many employees, including managers, avoid addressing issues with executives due to fear of retaliation or conflict. - Work-life balance is a façade: Although the leave policy is generous, management imposes new, unwritten rules retroactively. For example, after my leave was approved, I was forced to reschedule due to a sudden policy limiting time out of the office to one month.

Pros

I feel incredibly lucky to have worked at Statrys, where my colleagues were always super supportive, and I loved the positive vibe when we worked together. Everyone in the office is talented and skilled, making it a great environment to learn and grow. I was grateful that the company recognized my potential and accepted my requested salary based on my CV. The open culture allows us to share opinions and discuss ideas freely, as we all aim to see the company grow. Perks like snacks every Friday and free lunches on Tuesdays add to the enjoyable work atmosphere. I also feel fortunate to work where the leaders have clear visions, and we can see the potential for the company’s growth.

Cons

As Statrys is a start-up, some management processes can be a bit unclear at times, which can lead to occasional confusion. However, this is part of the growing process, and we all work together as a team to find solutions and improve.
