Pros
1. Great working environment. Always hear fun and laughter. I mean everyday! 2. Depends on the department, R&D has very little politics. If there is, it is always about getting job done. 3. Great learning environment. Never heard of people got fired for making mistakes even it cost the co millions so long one try his best to fix it. 4. Career path is really up to individual to carve it. Work hard, promote fast, lazy want work life balance, normal or mediocre career path. Really up to individual. 5. Supportive and understanding management. I bet with my last dinosaur dollar, you won’t find a better management than this one. 6. Reasonable bosses. Corporate tyranny is not an acceptable culture. Never try to pull rank here. You die very fast. But if someone does pull rank with you means, you better get the job done quickly. 7. Cordial work environment. It cannot be more cordial than the fruit punch. 8. Salary depends entirely up to individual. Want get high pay, see shxt do the shxt job, see problem take up the fire hose and put it out the first fast. The company will pay and reward you well. 9. Family friendly. If your child or pregnant wife is sick, we understand. Pls go and take care of them first. Come back just work double hard to pay back . 10. Depends on department and individual. If one have been delivering his work well, flexibility is “unlimited”. But if one's work is bad and keep delay schedule, etc, sorry.. he will be watched UNLIMITED! 11. It is a company that focus a lot of engineering skills with lots of subject matter expertises. 12. Good annual bonus. Where to find this kind of bonus these days? 13. A company that treasures talent. If you are a talent, you resign and can come back and resign and come back and resign and comeback and stay on! 14. Good profitable and cash flow company that ensure job security. 15. Only the best people thrived here. Venture R&D talents are highly sort after. Other companies pay premium to attract their talents.
Cons
1. Current health care benefit is lousy. May need to top up for medical bills for seeing doctor. 2. Poor Co Insurance. Better buy your own when you travel for business. 3. The more capable you are, the more busy. The less capable you are, less busy. 4. The higher you go, the worse the stress. Depends on your health, when reached certain level better stop. 5. Low leveraging because it is top heavy. 6. Glass ceiling and career for very technical people. So come in first few years learn to work. Next few years better learn to talk and learn more presentation skills. 7. Because of its business nature, work scope and R&R very unclear. Only clear to the top but blur at the bottom. 8. Decision is always at the very top. I mean the pinnacle. 9. Career path can be challenging. Yes you can carrve it but you can be uncurved if you got no talking and presentation skills, Same everywhere. 10. Very conservative management. Liken a bird in the hand, squeeze scared it die, let go scared it fly! 11. Very hard work for many projects for everyone at every level. 12. Work load not uniformly distributed. It is very much depends on the nature of business and project 13. It is a very very very very very very very very frugal company. 14. For what it is, it is a no frills company. It is a pro for shareholders and customers, and a con for employees. 15. Those who keep hyping about career planning etc. pls go join stat board. This place is about you able to fight it out and strive to move up. No career planning at all. Jiro.
