1. Leaders with no leadership Many leaders in the headquarter are homegrown and made global heads not because of their competency but their tenure. They are unprofessional and lacking of leadership. Although the global heads in the headquarter hired very senior and experienced staff in non Mainland China, they don't trust, respect or properly leverage these staff: - using them as arms and legs instead of brains, - seeing different opinions as offence - gaslighting them all the time - blaming them for anything regardless - giving contradictory, non-constructive and non actionable feedback - not making time for them even they requested, not attempting to understand what and how they do, but giving bad performance rating by default (why? see #2) - setting unrealistic target without purpose, labelling the staff if they pointed out the truth - no recognition on excellent result of difficult projects done by them, even declined the recognition nominated by cross-functional stakeholders for the staff, no appreciation of extra miles taken by the staff 2. Pay & Benefit: - terribly low hourly pay, considering the length and intensity of the work - leaders gave bad performance rating without concrete reason, for purpose of not giving salary increase or RSU refresh, and giving less bonus to pull down the actual total package of the staff - benefit is minimal
