Pros

- Very competitive starting salary packages, even for fresh graduates - Depending on the team, less seniority politics involved, you can see some American culture seeping into daily work life here - You can find very genuine and helpful people here (if you look for it)

Cons

- Performance reviews gets tedious and masterful way of gaslighting employees to look after oneself or favorite team members only - Bad salary increments, especially if you're not favored in reviews or the team's politics (or even worse: cross departmental politics during experience-widening transfers) - The performance review process pushes middle managers to give more unpaid extra work to their direct reports just to survive a few more months before they move on from their supervisory role (which was needed to advance upwards the ladder in the first place). - Because of what you're doing here is very specialized, getting a job outside which applicable is quite hard -- nobody wants a specialist at engine throttle bodies, they want a standard rotating engineer. Be mindful of your career paths
