Pros

Much smaller operation in the US comparing to China headquarter, so communication is easier, less political. Feel like working in a start-up but backed by a large corporate.

Cons

- Sometimes it gets very hard to align with the management in China, makes it impossible to get project/budget approval on time. - People are generally nice but not very fun.

Pros

Business decisions not influenced by downturn in US economy. Annual bonuses and trips.

Cons

Loyalty is seldom acknowledged or rewarded. Unprofessional and duplicitous behavior is common throughout all levels of management (particularly lower levels). Recognition for achievement is often misappropriated, or misdirected.
