Pros

Good salary and benefits, good culture and values, friendly management, nice and relaxed environment (including free foods and drinks), excellent work/life balance.

Cons

Proprietary technologies used to develop "the" application does not look as a good choice. Implications are in fact multiple, including the risk for developers to loose their skills about not only common programming languages, but also the entire ecosystem related to them. So not just a proprietary language but even the entire ecosystem. Developers cannot resell outside skills acquired.

Culture is great but sadly not in APAC

Pros

Great HR product - well known and top notch Good Benefits

Cons

To built a culture is not just having celebration and having team gatherings. Culture is in the people. Everyone needs to embrace it. Great culture I see in US and EMEA but sadly missing in APAC. Leadership too busy with proving themselves rather than emphasize on growth mindset and learning and encouraging everyone to do the same. HR supports management rather than employees.
