Pros

can make direct impact and see your results

Cons

Most of the leadership team is Chinese, and meetings are occasionally held in Chinese, making it harder for non-Chinese staff to engage fully in strategic discussions. There’s also a noticeable level of internal politics and unclear favoritism.
