Pros

Leadership seems to want employees to be happy and not overwork themselves.

There are no expectations to give more than 40 hours a week.

Pretty good benefits.

Cons

US engineering is the “trophy wife”. All real engineering and code ownership is with the Chinese engineering team, with new hires basically only happening there.

There is a feeling within US engineering that the only reason we exist is political, to reassure West-based customers there is no funny business. “See, we have engineers in the US!”

Advice to Management

There seem to be no real push making US engineering into a proper engineering organization.
