There is absolutely no documentation and/or specification done prior to development, this is all done after the fact. Developers are constantly critiqued for not following standards, regardless of that fact that there are absolutely no development and/or design/interface guidelines. Needless to say every module in the system has its own unique and quirky designs.
If you work for this place you will never have any of your ideas considered. If you are Thai you will never be consider more than some third world code monkey. However that being said it has a pretty good coffee machine, can't remember the brand.
Anyone considering this company for employment should consider buying their own coffee machine and cut their loses.

I was hoping to hear more about the coffee machine. A good coffee machine is worth its weight in gold! -

From memory I believe it is a Saeco.
Why don't you just turn up for an interview, if you can say dotNET you will get one. This will allow you to see their super cool offices and dynamic team building environment. You can go and get a coffee yourself; they will probably pay for your flight and accommodation on the proviso that you are not of Asian decent.
Would you believe that they are so paranoid about this site they blocked in their firewall. I guess they did not want employee's posting during their lunch breaks. -

The only thing I want to know is: who paid for the coffee machine? BH shareholders? A coffee starved GCS employee? Santa? I bet 20 baht it wasn't Pat.
