Pros

Worked with some great people Good benefits

Cons

* No schedule flexibility - everyone has to go in from 9 - 6 or 10 - 7. Even if you want to go in earlier it's not an option * Mandatory in-office * No chance of raise/promotion - There were people working there for over a year who didn't receive any raise or promotion, not even a bonus. * Projects get 75-90% done and then management decides to drop the project or change it so drastically that we have to start over. * No plan stays remotely consistent for longer than 3 weeks * We're forced to work with garbage code from another team in China. We have to fix the code which takes longer than just writing it correctly the first time. The code and architecture is so bad that it costs the company tons of unnecessary expenses but even when we work on a fix to make things essentially free it gets ignored and is never implemented. Kind of weird that a company wouldn't want to save money and achieve the same outcome. * Higher-ups never talk to developers, they just pass down orders through managers and the orders change about every week. * Company fires people they deem non-essential or difficult to communicate with * Not stable * Employees who speak Mandarin are given preferential treatment, because management doesn't want to have to speak English

Pros

I’ve seen some older negative reviews here, mainly reflecting the company’s early exploration stage. During the initial years, Bitus Labs was defining its business direction and product strategy, which led to a few project restructurings and policy adjustments that hadn’t yet aligned with local practices. However, things have improved dramatically since the full company reorganization in 2023–2024. The structure is clear, leadership is stable, and benefits and work flexibility have been upgraded. Today, Bitus Labs offers a supportive and innovative environment with great teamwork between the US and Taiwan offices. Employees are trusted with ownership, and there’s strong encouragement for personal growth and creative ideas.

Cons

As the company continues to grow fast, priorities can still shift quickly. Adaptability and proactive communication are key to thriving here.
