It is not very pleasant

Business Outlook

Pros

Everyone in the company is friendly. The managers give you enough flexibility for working schedule. It is easy for team work.

Cons

It is very difficult to negotiate salary. Human resources have tons of excuses. Company locates at expensive sites, though HR will tell you that is a good thing for you. But NO. You will see how terrible your paycheck is when you work there comparing to the expense.

Business Outlook

Pros

Technical people like applications and service personnel are knowlegable and professional. Product is well tested before being released to market. Flexible on pricing when necessary.

Cons

No formal personal development plan. Insufficient training for new hires for such a high tech product. Local management has poor understanding of the market. Pay is on the lower end of the scale for a multi national.
