The benefits are above average. Work hours are reasonable. Many with home office when needed. Dogs are welcome. Co workers are supportive.

Limited growth potential. Strong management network that is hard to break into. Promotions given out like candy to upper management every year.

Pros

Well, I think this company can provide you good salary. The house fund is great, too. The working environment is also very good. The company in Pudong live in a park, far from the annoying road but still convenient. And the work burden is low. You don't need to come on time every day. If you have some personal issues, be free to tell your boss and you can get some paid vacations.

Cons

Although this company provides relative high salaries for the engineers at first, the salaries will increase very slowly in the following years. At first, you will find that your salary is higher than the employees in other companies, but later you find they have more money. Almost no bonus for the good-performing team.
