Pros

- Good pay (although not as good as big tech) - Lunch vouchers - Code quality

Cons

- Bosses micromanage, speak very loudly, always pressing and pushing people - Work from office every day, and it won't change anytime soon - Mandatory 10% ratio of employees get fired every 6 months, leaving most people fearful (except managers who are immune to it) - No discussions about career advancement, no feedback - Chinese spoken all day by most of the engineers and managers, with no regard for anybody else that doesn't speak it - People get promoted solely based on their relationship with their manager. There is no performance review report or anything, just one or two sentences that say nothing - Dinner voucher is just a trick to get people to stay in office every day past 7pm, and it works. Leave at 6pm and you'll get side looks (and eventually get a warning from your manager) - Office is super cramped. Many new hires are sitting at common tables and have make-shift setups or none at all - You never hear from upper management, only maybe once a year and it's usually an uninteresting and unprofesionnal speech

Pros

Good benefits (travel, allowance, pantry support etc.) Friendly working environment Good colleagues in HK office (friendly & supportive) Nice working location.

Cons

Bad & Useless high management (no global sense, never listen). HQ (China) team did nth meaningful, only agree and follow everything / every words from the boss. Horrible culture to encourage the staff being "brainless" to get promotion. No rewards to any staff who works hard, only rewards to the staff who "agree" everything from boss but didn't execute anything benefit to the company. Most of the staff who joined earlier are useless (No. 2/ No. 6) etc. , didn't have any global exposure, and never review the market needs, just ask for non-sense request. Super bad English and never able to understand the global market, They are harming the company to grow.

Pros

salary and benefit are good

Cons

Do not trust the ratings for this company. They give out tokens for employees to write positive reviews. It's the worst company I have ever worked for. There's absolutely no work-life balance, and there's a 20% layoff at the bottom every year. They don't evaluate you based on your performance but on your relationship with the leaders. For the sake of your health, I advise any candidates to NOT consider this company. Many people can't stand it after just a week.
