Worst place to work as a software engineer
Worst place to work.
Every form of communication is in Chinese.
Long hours. Salary used to be good earlier, but now it’s average. Most of the docs are in Chinese. It has made my life a living hell.
You seriously need to reconsider making changes in the work culture.
