Pros: A place to grow your career and has good job stability. A chance to work with many competent engineers and learn.

Cons: Schedules are tight and the expectation is that you will work overtime to make up for management's overcommitments. If you don't work overtime, then socially you will become a pariah in your section, as you are increasing your colleagues' workload by not working overtime. Everything you do is micromanaged. Even emails to external vendors must be approved by management two levels above you. * Social pressures to work longer. * Vacations and breaks are not encouraged but are challenged by management.

Pros: Good pay and benefits. And Taiwanese people are great.

Cons: It will burn you out and destroy your liver.

Pros: Good money. Cool, stimulating work. People can be cool. Management is trying to care; it’s just less of a priority than making money. Never felt any significant racial bias against me in my time there.

Cons: Workers show large emotional ranges because, s***, it is actually just tough. Bigger on negative reinforcement than positive reinforcement. They are a company, and their goal is to make more and spend less money. This is very apparent. While you are there, you will assume a significant amount of responsibility.
