Pros

I like its family culture, everyone is treated as a member of the whole family, to get support and caring from your bosses. And more important, EF allows you to make mistakes, very tolerant. Besides, there is no distance between you and others from other departments, as long as you can pick up the phone, you can reach anyone, even have a lunch talk with big boss. Then, I also like the beautiful office building in Shanghai, the most cool office I have ever seen in my life. The most important, I can always meet very talented people in different area working around me, positive, energetic, smart and friendly, very impressive. Talking to them is also good learning to me.

Cons

If the office can be much closer to my house, that would be great.

Pros

Recognize people who work hard. Not necessary to stay on one position for x number of years to get promotion, if you are really promising you will get promotions in consecutive years as well. From technology perspective, we always work on latest ones, and are always open for new suggestions and working with new techniques. Lots of opportunity to learn business. Also with working hard we do lot of party as well. International exposure, as you work with people from so many different nationality.

Cons

No clear growth plan for employees. Appraisal cycle is not clearly laid out. Sometimes deadlines are too tight, it throws away work life balance.
