Good start-up - Project Manager NetMind.AI Employee Review

As a AI startup, has the flexibility to rapidly switch per market needs

Team size is limited, sometimes needs to wait for a while for colleagues' feedbacks, since the whole team is globally based

Definitely no pros, just an option if you’re seeking a job or can’t find a better one at the moment

1. Toxic Culture: The company advertises itself as an international organization, but the reality is far from it. The workplace is dominated by Chinese employees, with most meetings and communication done in Mandarin and Chinese media. There is no diversity, despite their outward claims of being global. 2. Minimal Pay: The pay for us is nothing more than minimum wage, which feels like a scam. They lure recent graduates with promises of visa sponsorship after the internship period, but in reality, they either extend another contract without any visa update or, worse, cut you off and hire another intern to exploit cheap labor. 3. Lack of Mentorship and Management: There is no proper mentorship, no structured management, and absolutely no coherent marketing or managerial strategies. Product development is haphazard, with decisions made arbitrarily by leadership, and you’re not allowed to challenge the bosses even when their demands are absurd. The focus isn’t on generating profit or building meaningful products—they rely heavily on ChatGPT and OpenAI APIs, pretending to be an AI research company. Their so-called “research” are ridiculous, fake, and lack technical strategies. No one teaches you anything, and instead, you’re constantly told to “just ask ChatGPT” for guidance. Shockingly, even critical decisions are made by asking ChatGPT. 4. Work-Life Balance: There’s virtually no work-life balance. The HR closely monitors when you arrive at the office, but the boss is rarely present, and it’s unclear what they’re actually doing. They don’t manage the teams or care about the product, yet somehow act as though they’re extremely busy. Despite all this, they’ve also eliminated the option to work remotely for most employees.
