Average - Web Developer K8 Applied Innovation Employee Review

I worked at K8 Applied Innovation for about a year. The team in Manila is very friendly and works very hard. Everyone wants to succeed and supports each other as much as possible. Working in a creative environment with flexibility in work-related tasks was great.

However, there's something to be said about working for an over-reaching American CEO who has poor business practices and is all-around unethical. When you are born into money and can simply throw it at your failing businesses, you forget that your workers are actually people, too. Perhaps that's why he has had a rough time at a bunch of different already-failed business ventures. K8 is essentially a shell company of the failing CEO's other businesses. I worked here for a short period of time, but the grass is 100% greener on the other side.

As a startup company, it allows employees to be more flexible when it comes to their career needs, job responsibilities, and execution of the needed projects. The management team has given us ample amount of opportunities to both learn, and facilitate the job requirements in our working style, but at the same time in-line with clients' expectations. This company has a huge potential to grow and be part of the leading BPO companies in the Philippines, and I am looking forward to grow with the company, and venture in my career development as well.

As much as I would love to interact with our leadership team personally - our management team only visits at least once every 4 months coming from US. They are really inclined with working really well with the PH team, and if only they can come here often, or longer than usual - it will be much better!
