Pros

The company has many dedicated employees between 5 years - 35 years for long term employment. This is stable for long term career. Every year the company consistently make sure to review the employee performance. The management is too busy to score the production output, but the product quality index was poor!

Cons

The organisation is very slim and many company resources are very difficult to examine the site in specially when the problem arisen and need to encounter immediately. The management expectations are too high and not realistic in specially the projects to be completed for bonus performance is carried by employee on top of daily routine or in other words the daily routine performance is not considered as part of bonus performance. Don't expect to score 100% or you may sacrifice life-work balance. Ideally, the company is not conducive for young family with kids as it was very difficult to maintain balance work-family.

Stable business, biggest in a field where size matters Industry experience and networking International presence Good cash and benefits once you make it into the high rollers

Cons

HR is too powerful, ridiculously inept, and rarely benevolent Shady accounting and favoritism Pac Man innovation; gobble up ideas, but not come up with many Performance evaluation framework is baseless and arbitrarily overruled (for worse only, and sometimes collectively) by top management
