Pros

Exposure to world class working structure, can make good connections here

Cons

Not much scope of growth, Appraisals only in the book and for namesake, was in a dysfunctional team where there was no growth and no respect for hard work, Mental health wellness is just a dictionary term not put wholly in practice, good that I came out as soon as I got a better paying opportunity

Pros

Competitive compensation and a nice office

Cons

Have never seen a department solely existing because they create 'problems' on their own to make it seem like they are working and making an impact. Managers and directors blatantly criticizing team leads in meetings. Their only feedback is "i want to see this KPI increase next week". Strong chinse culture bias. if you are not fluent in chinse, dont join, Managers have no time for you. They join redundant meetings in during working hours and end up scheduling meetings after work hours.
