Pros

Overall the company is okay. There are some nice perks, but the culture and work expectations are some of the worst I've experienced.

Cons

Work-life balance is very bad. The hours and deadlines are very unrealistic. They expect you to be available at all times and taking meetings at any time of the day - I've had meetings at 7am and midnight numerous times. On a few occasions, I was at the office from 9am until midnight.

Pros

Being a fast growing company in the US, salaries are quite high.

Cons

The company works in a constant fast pace environment where new hires are expected to figure things out without receiving any training. It is extremely difficult for non-chinese people to fit in. The company's culture is extremely different than what most US companies are used to and overall running as it would in China. Most people speak Chinese in offices and chats. There is no work life balance and most employees do communicate in the middle of the night or on weekends to work with the teams in China.

Pros

Smart people at mid management and IC levels.

Cons

They lie about bonuses, distribution curves, salaries, RSUs Poor senior management Duplicate roles, yet don’t source roles needed Ridiculous sales targets, which leads to a finger pointing culture Lack of clear objectives globally each bi-month, leading to sales feeling as if they need to sell against 20+ products each bi-month
