Mini Cisco - Developer Crest Data Systems Employee Review

Very Good Pay, Good Team culture

Sometime needs to work overtime

Exposure to latest tech stacks based on client needs Opportunities to learn on the job with real-world applications Office is stocked with snacks and coffee Hybrid model (3 days in-office) Some flexibility depending on client demands

Very limited career growth in the U.S. team Long work hours due to India team collaboration No vertical or horizontal mobility Underpaying below the market rate High layoff risk when unassigned to a project Poor management vision and lack of junior hiring Career growth is extremely limited within the U.S. team, with no clear path to leadership or alternative roles like project management. You may be assigned to short-term projects or left without one, which could lead to layoffs. Collaboration with offshore teams often requires long working hours, with meetings in early mornings and late evenings in addition to a full daytime workload. Management lacks clear direction, and the U.S. office has minimal collaboration working on separate projects due to its very small size. Burnout is a real risk, especially without personal development or mentorship opportunities.
