Pros: - Decent salary. - Free catering. - High ownership of features and projects. - Possible exposure to many different technologies. - Colleagues who are talented and helpful.

Cons: - It can be hard to promote. - There are long working hours, depending on the team. - There is no WFH, which depends on the organization and team. - Performance reviews are getting strict recently. You can get PIPed (laid off) for slightly underperforming or production issues. - Some teams can be very business-oriented, and you do not learn much technically. - There is tech debt, a messy code base, bad coding standards, and poor design, which are team- and org-dependent. - There are very unrealistic feature delivery timelines, forcing you to do overtime and work over the weekends. - It can be bad pay per hour-wise due to excessive overtime. - Meetings and docs are in Chinese. You don’t have to speak good Chinese, but if you don’t listen well, you can miss out on a lot of details. This makes your project a lot harder, as much time is needed for clarification and figuring things out. - Mentorship might be limited due to team dynamics or how busy they are.

Pros: A great place to learn, especially on how to grow the system. The system used is pretty complex and focused for internal efficiency, not relying on tools.

Cons: The workload is heavy and tends to have miscommunications.

Pros: 1. Higher pay than others 2. Nice peers

Cons: 1. Too many working hours. 2. Not good upper management.
