Bug-Tracker Review - QA Tester Bug-Tracker Employee Review

Great people to meet with. Easy to enter, easy money

I saw it! I saw a guy from LOC department staring at some sort of oracle scripts. Then I asked him what is this weird language and he told me that it's Thai. I asked him again, hey, you don't look like a Thai guy, can you really read it. No I can't, I'm Russian, they just asked me to compare the text displayed with the text files character by character because they don't have a Thai tester, he told. You work on-call which means your bi-weekly pay is around 250 -300 pieces. Sometimes you don't have any job for 4-6 weeks then you work 3-4 days and then 2-3 weeks of down time. HR lies to you promising some hours "next week". Management's creed is to take the money from the clients and then hide away in their offices leaving the leads to fend for themselves. Chaos is everywhere - old equipment, broken cables and screens, recurrent network issues. No training provided, the leads who have no idea what to do because they became the leads without any testing experience after 4 months of work at BT.

Some managers don't supervise properly, so you can get away with doing little work. They have a fair supply of video game peripherals. Everyone I worked with loved the fooball table.

My biggest con is that their two computer labs are small and cramped. One has no windows. Twice HR missed a day I'd worked off my payroll. I was practically forced to work night shift - and I soon found out night shift wasn't for me. I was given no training. AT ALL. Neither were any of the other employees. We just had to guess what to do. Low rate of pay - minimum wage for functionality testers, $12/hour for linguisitics testers. Work is dependent on contracts. The local area is unsavory. The office is the same building as a charity shop.
