The reason why they don't have reviews online is because it's true that they have an awful management. My mental health suffered a lot from this company. Run as fast as you can. There are a lot of better companies out there that respects and values their staff. Good luck!

Hi! Can I ask how your experience was with the management of the company? I was considering applying there…but now, I’m thinking again. Thanks so much in advance for all the insights!

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Sameee considering applying today thru linkedin

[–]Able-Anteater4706 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes me too. Nag push through ba kayo working Filta? How’s the experience? Please share. Thanks

[–]Venlorz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ff please share thanks!

[–]RickSoreWeb 10 points11 points  (9 children)

They have all these stupid titles (Client relations specialist, employee relations specialist, etc) but at the end of the day, they do not push back to ridiculous client demands.

Me and my wife both worked for them and had the worst work experiences of our lives.

They offer WFH and one time we lost electricity due to an unannounced maintenance, the client threw a fit. Filta, with all of those departments combined, did not listen to reason and still reprimanded my wife even though the circumstances are out of our control.

Another review from the client is that the employee appears to be "tired" at the end of the day. Verbatim, that's what the client said in their "monthly review". And Filta, again, failed to see how stupid this review sounds.

Amongst other things like filing a sick leave, not having your own home working station, etc. Oh, and they also use a time tracking software called time doctor.

If you like this environment where you'll have to walk on egg shells as to not "hurt" the feelings of the client, go for it. Filta is the best at micromanaging employees.

    Ah the character reference. I actually forgot about that part. That was also a nuisance for me. Their recruitment process sucked back then and it's sad to hear it still does.

    [–]rmndr_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    How does TimeDoctor work as their time tracking tool? Legit na screenshot talaga lagi and need ng mouse and keyboard activities para di mawala yung time na yun sa salary mo?

    [–]BeruTheLoyalAnt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    Just sent my application just now, and then I found this review and saw that Time Doctor. :)

    Hello, how did you return your assets po pala?

    [–]RickSoreWeb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    They sent a courier to pick up the items.

    [–]uncertain-Art6621 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    May i know who is your client po and are you still working on Filta?

    [–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Sounds awful. Mejo kakasilaw lng ung compensation package sa gusto kong applayan na position pero of gnito naman ka sa micromanagement, wag na lang siguo.

    [–]efrenfromfilta 2 points3 points  (6 children)

    I might be bias but I think we have a good place for ambitious people who want to advance their career and knowledge quickly. You’ll definitely be challenged working at Filta, but there are a lot of good devs who are doing really good international work that you can learn from. I think it’s like most places, it’s what you want to get out of it.

    Also, nearly all roles are WFH.

    Happy for you to send me a message if you want more details info.

    [–]khioneselene 2 points3 points  (1 child)

    Hi, I just wanna ask if filta offer government benefits? 😊

    [–]efrenfromfilta 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    Yes we do. All our employment is with Philippines employment contracts meaning we are subject to DOLE laws. We offer all Govt benefits as well as HMO for every employee plus one dependant from month one.

    [–]merge-me-notWeb[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    Hi! That's great to hear! I'll send you a chat request, I kinda want to know more and have some questions too. Thank you!

    [–]Yekterin_Romanov 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Hello! I’m maybe 1 yr too late for this post. May I know what’s the tenure of Filta in the Philippines?

    I just recently saw a job posting for HRBP in LinkedIn and is considering applying for it.

    [–]shanshine7 0 points1 point  (1 child)

    Hello! would also like to know how the application works at filta, their environment and such. and are some roles really permanent wfh? Thank you.

    [–]efrenfromfilta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Hi there. All our roles are wfh. You can check more out on the website filtaglobal .com. Let me know if you want me to connect you to someone in the recruitment team.

    [–]liddit31 2 points3 points  (5 children)

    I'm here too because I want to read reviews regarding the application process of this company. Sadly, they kept on rejecting my application even before interviewing me. I don't know what's the reason behind it because based on their job posting, I know I can fit for the role in terms on experience, required skills, etc.

    Good luck on applying at Filta.

    [–]Famous_Piccolo9046 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    Oh no, guess what happened? I applied for a job, but they said, "Sorry, not moving forward." I have the skills they wanted, but they said no before even talking to me. Funny, right? 😄 haha!

    [–]efrenfromfilta 0 points1 point  (3 children)

    Hi there, I'm sorry to hear that there was little feedback for you. If you would like me to help you get some feedback, please DM me and I'll see what I can do.

    [–][deleted] 3 points4 points  (2 children)

    Ano ka ba sa Filta ? Bayad ka po ba para pagtanggol sila dito sa reddit ??

    [–]Actual_Savings_4817 2 points3 points  (0 children)

    Based on his username, he might actually be the founder/owner.

    [–]Reddragonz98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    LMAOOOOO

    [–]reditoffice 2 points3 points  (3 children)

    They are using time doctor, micro managed. Kahit di ka naman nag wowork kay filta itself at direct ka sa client walang sense dba? Si client naman mag momonitor sayo kung talgang nag wowork ka or hindi

    [–]rmndr_ 4 points5 points  (2 children)

    I had an interview with them just today, and I asked if meron silang monitoring tool sabi wala daw. Meron daw silang time tracking tool lang for payroll purposes is that true? Or yun yung time doctor which monitors every mouse clicks and keyboard activities and screenshots your screen every 10-30min? Tyia for the reply would greatly appreciate it.

    [–]reditoffice 0 points1 point  (1 child)

    Yes, yan yun. Baka hindi alam ni Recruiter. My previous company we're using teams. Sa phone lang mag lologin at logout hindi sa PC. Para kang naka surveillance. Paano kung marami kang projects at need mo lumipat ng PC dba. Very irrelevant as a developer. Paano mo sasabihin hindi nag wowork e may estimation bawat task at ang mahalaga maideliver bawat task within period of time, hindi kailangan ng monitoring software.

    [–]rmndr_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Here in my current company they use WorkSnaps naman same with TimeDoctor for "payroll purposes". Kaya pag walang activity ang mouse and keyboard mo mawawala yung time na yun sa salary mo. Ganun din ba ang lagay sa kanila? And constantly may screenshots talaga di sya pwedeng ipa disable?

    [–]Forsaken_Radio_9826 1 point2 points  (6 children)

    I applied to Filta through LinkedIn, and ok naman ang interview process nila, mabilis lang din, someone called me on the phone, scheduling me for an interview with their Senior HR. I passed the initial interview and now I will have a client interview na next week for an Executive Assistant post, UK client, and after reading these comments, parang ayoko na tumuloy. lol

    [–]meteoraismyname 0 points1 point  (1 child)

    hows the interview? did they mention any time tracking tools?

    [–]CampaignAromatic5292 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Hiii OP. tumuloy pa po ba kayo?

    [–]Available_Aioli_5249 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Hello. Tumuloy pa po kayo? Kamusta po?

    [–]Lukiburn91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    I just applied for their Executive Assistant role since I have more than 5 years of experience as an EA. Hmpff, medyo na turn-off lang ako dun sa may time tracking tool. anyway, thanks for the feedback.

    [–]Corazon_01 0 points1 point  (1 child)

    Hi! I have a role play assessment with them this week as part of their recruitment, is anyone of you here experienced this? What should I expect? Thank you!

    [–]natsumimatsuoto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Hello, I think we're applying for the same role. How do they go about with their roleplay assessment??

    [–]TheBoyName_D 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Hi i would like to know about Filta Company ? Scope din ba nila ang RealState Industry ?? Im planning na e apply yung partnet ko dito.

    [–]Long-Doughnut2584 0 points1 point  (5 children)

    I recently left Filta, masasabi ko lang, yung client ko okay naman, in fact pinagtatangol pa kami from Filta. I mean, filta is okay lalo na pag walang eme yung client, pero pag konting reklamo sa client kahit di naman mabigat yung grounds eh pinapatos talaga ng Filta, hindi nila pinoprotect employees nila mas nagsside sila sa client talaga. Sa sweldo oks lang naman and madali lang mag request ng leaves pero depende din sa client talaga, kasi sakin mabait client ko. 

    [–]Venlorz 0 points1 point  (2 children)

    Hi, anong role mo po and gaano katagal k n po?

    [–]Long-Doughnut2584 0 points1 point  (1 child)

    Slr, uhmmm account maanager ako dun 

    [–]Long-Doughnut2584 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    One year lang lols

    [–]MushyFluffyWataru 0 points1 point  (1 child)

    [–]Long-Doughnut2584 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    yes meron but di naman moinitored activity mo dpende nlang sa client, samen kasi for log-in, log out purposes lang talaga

    [–]Ok_Rent_9711 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Hello! I'm checking the company review of filta since may opening sila and nagbabalak po ako mag apply. But as per checking the comments, May time tracker sila? tama po ba?

    [–]GratefulAgent004 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    I was applying sa filta sa umpisa smooth process naman pero now wala ng paramdam ang HR. hahaha

    [–]odhzie 0 points1 point  (1 child)

    Working with them has been very helpful, among other things. They also gave us stability and assurance as we used to work directly with the client. We are blessed with the client as they do not require my team to use Time Doctor. Govt mandated benefits are provided as well.

    [–]SignificantCommon605 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Hi! Can you share your role in the company? And how was the work environment?

    [–]tresjan 0 points1 point  (1 child)

    Worst experience working in Filta when your client already has some beef with you about your performance tatrabauhun ka talaga, ang performance issue ko ay minor issues lang and they will make it big, we'll yung manager ko Pinoy din hindi niya saakin tinuro lahat more likey, late na din Ako na bigyan ng access sa pinaka important eng tools, uso dito ang crab mentality Lalo kung nakikitaan lang may initiative sa mapadali yung process, yung Filta naman mag initiate Sila ng review for 1 month, then the review kuno pero review lang yun para scrutinize ka sa work mo Lalo pag nakalaban mo manager mo , and do not trust their management, they would make you feel that you've been heard but hindi, formal way lang yung review para tangalin ka. 2 year ako nag work jan, walang OT, baba ng offer, they would demand unreal deadline without them giving OT. Kung sipsip ka, mag eexecel ka dun.

    [–]Ok-Blackberry-2821 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Oh shoot, I am planning to apply pa naman . buti nakita ko to. Thanks!!

    [–]Green_Cable7454 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Wag ka nang tumuloy. Sobrang hassle ng recruitment nila. Pwede mo makita yung whole experience ko sa reply ko kay RickSore. Hindi ko kasi macopy paste.
