Pros

Nothing at all. If you are based in hongkong, you probably get paid twice as much as a similar role in Beijing. but does this count as Pros?

Cons

The only reason you are hired is to carry the blame of your incompetent boss one day, they make all kinds of stupid decisions and yet still survives, the guy who made the BCH fork incident is still working over there and is still in charge, they make unrealistic goal and force feed you that goal that saying anything else is blasphemy. The payment is so unfair that for a same role HongKong is paid twice as much as their Beijing team. You basically have to obey every command from your boss to get paid, no matter how stupid that command is. and he will be very pissed if you tell him that he is wrong.

Pros

This is a fast-moving company with things constantly involving. Some people might find it too difficult to adapt to, but I believe this is the perfect mode for an ever-changing industry. Changes bring opportunities, and you can try things that you wouldn't dare or imagine to do in the past. This is one of the biggest benefit, in my opinion. The company creates a platform for people to grow and shine, as long as you are prepared. Literally speaking, impossible is nothing, and the sky is the limit. People around you are young, energetic, fun and down-to-earth. It is rare to find this type of environment in Hong Kong. Management is straight-forward and understanding. They have high hopes and tight delivery schedule, but don't make impossible demands. Also, say goodbye to the bureaucracy that drives many talents crazy in the traditional banking industry. In OKEx, everyone is working towards the same goal and you can really feel the energy. Although there are still issues around internal processes and still much can be improved, overall it is moving on the right track at the right speed.

Cons

Communication channels, either top-down or bottom-up, could be improved, and it is important to further bolster the sense of belonging among the employees, especially the junior ones.
