Tech debt riddled pain
Tech debt riddled pain
- Attracts great people.
- Provides a nice office in the center of Bangkok.
- Great opportunity for job beginners (big project to learn on).
- Good salary for Bangkok.
- Absolute abysmal tech debt, which was not addressed for years.
- 100% business driven, with little understanding of iterative software processes nor how to nourish a good dev culture.
- Management is a bit arrogant and does not respect developers as much (high fluctuation). To be fair, this has been addressed over the years.
- Strange promotions (better if you know someone who can help you out wink or bootstrap your promotion).
- Tech stack: over-engineered, not documented; the developer who wrote this left years ago.
- Lacking salary compared internationally.
- In the past 7 years, the main App made questionable progress with a team that is definitely super-scaled: loads of people, loads of code, who do busy work with little visibility in the final product.
- More diverse hires.
- Clear path to promotion.
- Address tech debt (yes, you have to allocate a significant amount of time to do so).
- Hire less but hire better.
- Focus more on quality.
- Invest into a good working culture.

Agoda Interview Questions
Agoda Interview Experiences
Senior Software Engineer
Totally the worst experience. If you don't consider me as a candidate, please DO NOT ask me to do an online assessment. I submitted the application on Nov 3, 2025, and completed the OA on Nov 10, 2025, with 70% required time and over 90% test cases.
Software Engineer
The interview began with a LeetCode problem round, which served as a good gauge of technical and problem-solving skills. It was a medium-level problem.
Full Stack Engineering Manager
I received an interview call from Agoda directly through LinkedIn. The recruiter mentioned that there would be 5 rounds in total, starting with: * Introductory round with HR * Behavioural and cultural fit round with a Senior EM * DS/Algo round
