Pros

Good learning curve, a job to secure work visa status

Cons

- Limited resources. Everything can be boiled down to this: 1 person is carrying 3-4 ppl's work, so everyone is grumpy. When ppl are grumpy, you see sharp shoulders/antagonistic behaviors. Compensation is as bad as it can be, but the company still expect you to cover more work. You're expected to sacrifice your personal time and happiness to complete the work, and that's a bare minimum, because everyone else is doing that. If you are good in performance, you're rewarded with more work instead of money. - Racism. You'll be set up for failure if you're Chinese or Taiwanese.
