Pros

Free swag every winter and summer, casual work attire, private health insurance .... pretty much every other US tech company can offer

Cons

The manager (in the same time zone) will message and email you at 8pm, 9pm, 10pm at night and expect you to work even they constantly want to 'improve' work-life balance. They have quarterly management effectiveness survey but do nothing about the result ... our manager has scored 30 out of 100, 3 quarters in a row and senior management does nothing about it. There are over 200 employees in APJ, 20 in the recruitment team and 0 HR?! So no one actually care about you, your happiness at all. Mid management and senior management does nothing but weekly 1on1 ... half of the 1on1 you just sit there and have nothing to say to each other. So you can be the judge.

Pros

Free lunch and that’s everything

Cons

* No company vision * Pay is mediocre * Lack of growth opportunities * HR is TRASH! You will not be heard nonetheless * Sales driven, which is fine, but that changes every decision the company makes * Lack of product direction mainly because management sucks!! They cannot even prepare a decent product strategy document for a given FY. They ask the L4-L7 levels to come with product goals that they think are important! As long as you produce a BS concept on AI for your product, you are a star, you don’t have to even deliver it! Success metrics are only for the papers, they don’t care if they’re generating any revenue from it!
