Pros

Great and special products. Belong to WPP family so famous name

Cons

Regional CEO Katie like to play politics and cause quarrel among people and unrespect prople. She look down on local people and hire people from Singapore, USA and Australia who don't know Chinese. Make juniors suffer because we become translator. Come to shanghI office but never leave her room!

Pros

None. Literally none. Amazing that I cannot think of a single thing. I’m staying because the job market is awful otherwise I am out of here.

Cons

- carousel of management. Changing every several months - constant reorganization, hired for a role you want then moved to a role without input as a part of a reorganization - employees of set up to fail - management is suspect in their talent and ability to build a culture worth having - trying to “scale” products without a client first mentality - profits over people - legacy remote work allows people to skate by without actually doing work - history of hiring suspect CEOs because of nepotism - people get paid obscene amounts for doing little work. And if they do work, it is so awful.
