Pros

- Insurance used to be good, but now it is gone - Great place to be if you want to date in the office, during office hours, instead of working.

Cons

- Local maangement ignores feedback and avoids communication (e.g., hides in their own room with doors closed) - Senior members are there to blame you for every single details, instead of helping you - The company tolerates bullying and harrassment. If you report, they will try to block escalation and say "it's your fault". - The second you quit, they will try their best to make your life as difficult as possible - All the non-toxic people left due to disgust of toxic senior staff. - Senior members (not management-level) criticizes whatever you do, just to show power

Really Bad

Pros

1. Office got better after moving. 2. Many meeting rooms. 3. The job is not mentally or physically tiring. 4. Free lunch once a month.

Cons

1. I feel deceived. Job advertisement was Data Analyst, but contract was Data Specialist. I noticed this was going on for a long time. 2. Long notice period, to make it difficult to move to another company. 3. Poor leadership in Hong Kong. 4. Office is uphill, and going to office during summer means you will be fully sweaty. 5. There is no trust from the manager to employee. You have to report that you take toilet break when working from home. 6. Very easy job means you gain no skill from this job. 7. No growth path within the company. What you do as a junior and senior are the same. 8. Office politics is really bad. Some senior team members show favoritism.

Much to learn

Pros

1. Wide range tasks- so much to learn! all round HR, office administrators, IT, finance, company event etc. 2. Independent work -free to schedule your work 3. Competitive AL 4. Education subsidy – can apply with approval from c-suite level 5. Double pay – not guaranteed 6. Monthly team integration/building - some event required compulsory attendance

Cons

1. Long notice period- 1.5-month notice period , you can only get this important information when you sign your contract 2. Reserved part of my salary for office expenditures - no company business card/petty cash provided, have to pay first then reimburse. Sometimes HR/finance forgot to include those payment in your payout, suggested to check payslip every time 3. Unfair/unclear policy - WFH policy not aligned among teams/country, most HK team were downgraded to cheap medical insurance last year without immediately notice 4. Some colleagues are super nice, but some colleagues can be extremely demanding and rude
