You are like a robot here. You are just like a tool or a manufacturing robotic arm. That's the philosophy of DevFactory. - Software Engineer DevFactory Employee Review

- The company says that there's a lot of flexibility here because of the home based setup, but in reality this just looks good on paper. I tell you, it's even worse than a full time employment in a real company, in here they will force you to install a tracking software called "gTeam tracker", in which it monitors every bit of your privacy, it takes screenshot of your screen, mugshots of your face, the keystrokes your typing and the mouse activities (clicks, scroll, etc...) that you are doing in your remote terminal. They put rules on what is a valid screenshots/mugshots, etc... If you didn't meet that rule, even if you actually work, they will dispute the time-card uploaded by this tracker, and will not pay you for those hours worked. E.g. if it happened that you moved your head and the webcam took a mugshot, if it's not focused on your face, that one will be disputed. They treat you like a robot here. This is because of their philosophy of a "software factory" which is the most ridiculous idea ever thought of. You can't implement a manufacturing strategy in software development because the work done here is not routine like in real manufacturing industries. In software development, it's all about output and brain works, so measuring every move of an employee is not at all an indication of productivity. It's very obvious that the executives in this company never developed/exposed to a single real software development in their entire life, probably they were manufacturing executives before. - Incompetent middle manager. My immediate manager is one of this. And when he feel threatened, he just get rid of his people. - They say there is no politics, but truth is there is. My manager is favoring one team mate who is his puppet, because this teammate is the only person he can control, he is also the less experienced among us that's why. He is the only one who believe the manager, and the manager is positioning him for promotion. If you are a threat you're a goner.
