Pros

Worked in the platform SDK team for 2 years. The good thing is that work is pretty chill now. The overseas team doesn't have too much workload, as the majority of it is shifting to Shanghai.

Cons

Immature Leadership: The boss rewards flattery and bootlicking over actual merit, launching 'Cultural Revolution-style' AI campaigns that prioritize blind enthusiasm over actual feasibility.

Coasting Management: Middle managers fake being busy to secure their positions while slacking off daily.

Stagnant Culture: The team is 90% PRC, a stagnant, single-demographic team focused on survival.

Advice to Management

Not much actually, since the founders are really not that caring about the team, at least those in the overseas office's development.
