Pros

1) Great teamate, most of them are very intelligent and hardworking 2) pay is decent if we are expected to work only on normal working hours

Cons

1) nowdays due to cost cutting, a person are expected to do 2.5 person job. 2) not enough manpower causes staff to unfortunately back to back work late close to everyday for extended period of time. 3) high stress causing people to fall sick which lead to more workload to other team member. 4) people resign and not being replaced properly. 5) pay and benefit are no longer attractive considering the workload and hours spend 6) staff working late affecting their family relationship 7) all these while the ceo and high level management enjoying benefit increase in millions of usd which dwarf the cost cutting measures. Ridiculous.
