Pros: Being a remote office of a Europe-based company, the culture here values work-life balance a lot.

Cons: Shanghai's a remote office, so there are certain limitations.

Pros: - Highest salary in the Netherlands. - Work with highly skilled engineers.

Cons: My impression was that they don't tolerate people who are different. I know a lot of people say that it's a supportive environment, but in my case, it wasn't. They advertise that the company is against favoritism, but in practice, two people who committed the same kinds of mistakes are treated in vastly different ways, depending on whether they are liked or not. Gossiping and being mean is the norm. In general, I felt miserable while working there.

Pros: Fine lunches. A big and nice office.

Cons: Very outdated technologies. The principal and senior developers don't use Swift. All is done with 10-year-old technologies. The manager and principal intimidate all the time. Very political. I worked on an important system, and senior devs just stopped development because they didn't want competition. I found another job and now sleep well. Be careful, because you will be working on very old and outdated technologies with updates. Some seniors don't develop at all; they control other developers and play political games, such as implementing different policies and holding tons of meetings.
