Pros

1. The company have good client and many good project. There are so much room to learn and earn new skills. 2. Sometimes we were treated witn free lunch, karaoke or other activity.

Cons

1. The management of company is unprofessional. Sometime they mix personal view with work. Giving unsolicidate advise but really fear mongering you not to leave the company. 2. Some of the higher management use sweet words and false promises to boost your work. 3. They didn’t compensiate the work with salary or bonuses but with free lunch, karaoke or other activity. 4. They often sway their naive or young staff to love working extra mile for solely to gain “experience”. 5. Often time the management or senior staff talk badly about ex staff and exaggerate the reason the staff left or play down the real reason why they left. 6. There are rumours that some same level staff were given very different rate salary even thought they working the same project. Not sure if it gender issues or race issues, but from what we observed it is surely not based on skills.

We are pleased to hear that the former employee values our company and its clientele, has upskilled with us, gained valuable knowledge, and enjoyed our daily breakfasts, weekly lunches, and monthly celebrations. However, it is unfortunate that he did not utilise our internal reporting systems (HR, Anonymous Slack Channel, Management) to share his concerns with us. Since his remarks are quite severe, alleging violations of basic human rights and forced labour practices, let's address these issues to offer some clarity. 1. At Avinity Analytics, we provide a mix of personal and collective views that are related to work matters. Such feedback is kept professional, and our management team offers guidance to support employees’ growth. We respect our employees' freedom to explore career opportunities. Regarding the mention of "fear mongering tactics", our Modern Slavery Policy which clearly denounces any form of forced labour practices. In accordance with Article 1.1.1 & 1.3.1 of the mentioned document, Avinity Analytics has now opened an investigation to verify this claim that violates Article 1.1.2. 2. Every manager and supervisor encourages their team members when they perform well. They also provide moral support and occasionally offer additional rewards when dealing with tight deadlines or last minute client requests. 3. Every employee working at Avinity Analytics receives a pre-agreed monthly salary, benefits, and bonuses each year if individual and company performance levels are met. Free perks are provided to employees to encourage bonding between colleagues, to cultivate a positive and motivating work environment, and are not intended as compensation for extra work. In accordance with Article 1.1.1 & 1.3.1 of our Modern Slavery Policy, Avinity Analytics has now opened an investigation to verify this claim that violates Article 1.1.2 & 1.2.3. 4. Junior colleagues may have a technical skill gap compared to seniors when they joined the company, but are encouraged to learn more. This is essential at this stage of their careers to gain the necessary technical skills and work experience in order for them to perform their roles effectively. They receive extensive career development support and a personalised data development program, which assesses competency skills and provides sponsored technical education. 5. Some incidents involving former employees were discussed internally, as these incidents were significant and adversely affected the company. The intention is to learn from these experiences and use them as reminders to improve our practices and work environment. 6. All employees at Avinity Analytics are assessed and compensated based on a meritocracy system. Salary differences may occur due to variations in technical capabilities, experience, and potential for long-term growth. If employees feel they are underpaid, they are given the opportunity to present their case immediately. With appropriate justification, salary adjustments are made promptly to ensure fair compensation. Many employees in the company have received such salary increments. The allegation of salary discrimination based on race, gender, or other factors is serious and contrary to our values and Modern Slavery Policies. Our team is committed to preventing discrimination, and such allegations are taken very seriously. As a result, Avinity Analytics has initiated an investigation to verify this claim, as it violates Article 1.2.1 of our policies. Lastly, we welcome this former employee to reach out to any of our Avinity Analytics team to verify the above statements. As these are practiced in a transparent and open manner.

Pros

Ideal for beginners and interns. Plenty of opportunity to get your hands dirty with the real stuff. The company makes a good effort to enhance unity among staff. A smart and skillful CTO who is a good mentor.

Cons

The highest management lacks EQ, leadership, and decision-making skills (often oscillating between judgment and hearsay) and hires and fires based on whim. Feedback is used to attack the reviewers rather than owning up to their mistakes and improving.

Thanks for your feedback. We are glad that you enjoy your time at Avinity Analytics, however some points are misrepresented and are found to be false: 1. As an innovative AI and Data company, we deliver projects that adopt the latest technology innovations. Our current R&D areas - AI Agent Ochestration, Context Architecture Design, Augmented Analytics (Structured data) are leading technologies that require constant innovation and exploration. As junior members upskill and gain experience, they will be involved in these projects that require higher level of expertise and experience. 2. Our highest management is not involved in the hiring of graduates and juniors. Furthermore, any hiring and firing of employees are decided jointly by the supervisor and management team. No individual has the authority to make these decisions on their own. 3. We have implemented an official Modern Slavery policy, headed by a non-management employee, who is responsible for any mistreatment and unfair decisions. An anonymous channel has been setup to facilitate this based on employee feedback. 4. Our Avinity office culture is to promote individual growth both technical and interpersonal. Appraisals, alignment sessions are positive criticisms and carried out without negative and derogartory tone and language. To anyone reading this: please do not take this former employee's accounts, or our employer response at face value. We welcome you to reach out to anyone at Avinity Analytics to verify the claims above. To former employee - We encourage you to focus on building your individual competence and technical capabilities, as these are what will sustain a healthy and growing career. Resist the urge to engage in office politics, badmouthing, or slander. A victim mindset frames every problem as external and none as your own, a mindset that limits growth. Although your time with us didn't work out, we wish you the best in your career, and hope you're able to resolve these internal issues for the better.

Pros

AA Review I've worked at Avinity for around a year, and my experience has been largely positive. The atmosphere is supportive, with friendly colleagues and leadership that truly cares about employee well-being. It's heartwarming to see management actively improving our experience—like having breakfast on your desk when you arrive with an empty stomach. One of the highlights of the week is the team lunch provided by Avinity, which I always look forward to. In terms of work, I feel empowered and valued. My opinions are taken seriously, and I feel driven in my projects because leaders consistently check in to offer help and support whenever needed. One notable aspect for a company of Avinity’s size is the presence of a neutral person dedicated to ensuring no one faces discrimination and that our rights are protected. It's reassuring to know that there's someone we can turn to with any complaints or concerns. Overall, AA fosters an environment where I feel free to learn, grow, and develop myself professionally.

Cons

Maybe more meeting rooms available Would love to have an anonymous feedback channel
