Pros

There is almost no overselling that office location, it's fantastic Your coworkers are great people, most of them just trying to do a good job Decent pay depending on manager and department

Cons

-Politics, holy crap the politics are bad, they want everything to be done within the family's network of friends regardless of whether or not its a bad business decision. -Nepotism, you will see people who have worked there since the company's inception get passed over for promotions for some family member. CEO willingly creates entire departments to provide jobs to family members. -You must punch in and out like you are working at a grocery store, demonstrates no trust. -No training in a highly complex and convoluted product set. -Weird memos about new rules pop up that only seem to apply to certain people. -Benefits are garbage and incredibly expensive 1/3 of my monthly income and I couldn't find a single doctor who took my insurance. -Nothing is done to unify employees, if anything it feels like they want that. -Favoritism towards Jewish people, love jews, hate favoritism. -Paid time off is a joke -Lack of internal communications, all projects are done at the last minute -No internal communications on all levels, - You are expected to work without overtime. -Family business gives family members a superiority complex -Turnover rate is high...for good reasons

Pros

Good people to work with, very supportive, and easy to get projects completed once started. Wonderful project managers. Hang Li is probably one of the best in the industry.

Cons

I am not sure if this is a con per se or just growing pains for the company. Their new process for rolling out new projects through a small approval team slows things down. Many valuable projects never progress beyond being mentioned. I preferred the old way, where I would work directly with Executives and Directors to identify projects based on needs and issues. There was a bit of start/pause/redirect with projects that created issues.
