Pros

Good benefits and competitive salary but at risk of 0x variable bonus

Cons

#You probably have to work outside working hours, worst case after midnight (oncalls). But its not considered in your performance as management don't think its hard work. #For non-Chinese speaker, its not the right company as all of them speaks Chinese #Chinese speakers will get high-performance reviews (good bonus) whereas non-Chinese speakers need to work double hard and will get underperformance (no bonus) #Management don't give a zhit about your miseries of being not able to understand chinese documents #Chinese speakers is able to understand documents and PM requirement quickly as they all speak same language #If you don't speak Chinese, steer away from this company or there is a high chance you will get PIP
