Pros

Work life balance can be guaranteed, most people are nice and friendly except a few management stuffs. Almost no pressure on your assigned tasks. Company vacations(supplimentary to paid annual leaves and paid sick leave days)

Cons

Tedious and redundant processes in daily work but that's common in this industry. Old techniques used in product. People working here for long time generally has no motivation to learn new technologies. Very hard and slow to promote. Average pay but no RSU or options or espp plans offered.
