      Not a typical SiliconValley-style company you would expect

      Pros

      * Recognized brand with Gen-Z. * Ambitious company.

      Cons

      * Compensation: No annual merit increase or equity refresh. * Language: for engineering positions, only join this company if you can speak fluent Chinese. * HQ in China: Expect late night meetings. * Decision making: Most important decisions are made in HQ and high-level Chinese management. File-and-rank employees do execution only.

      No transparency, No cross team collaboration, No support to entrepreneurial spirit. High level of hierarchy.

      Pros

      It's the digital company of the moment. Salaries are high but benefits are not comparable to other big digital companies (Google, Facebook mainly).

      Cons

      Chinese culture is really felt. No efficient processes in place. No humble management. You cannot raise questions, they won't be answered. Long working hours (15 a day on average and it's considered normal).
