Pros

- Decent bonuses if you are lucky enough to have a manager that recognizes your efforts - The only non-Chinese manager I had before leaving the company was decent and more like the managers I've had in previous companies

Cons

- Horrible internal organization - Explicit and implicit discrimination against non-Chinese speakers - Zero Transparency - Managers take all the credit but are horrible at contextualizing tasks and blame their engineers for lack of context and communication - Managers are completely absent and have no knowledge of the details for projects you are working on, yet expect everything to be solved, without understanding limitations - Coworkers are not eager to help each other out. You have to exhibit Sherlock Holmes like abilities to gather the information you need to complete tasks - Seniors are snobbish and focus on very dumb, minute details in code when the "world is on fire" - Employees are switched and changed within the organization like they are chess pieces - I saw tons of families forced to relocate, and even separated across countries even though Binance allegedly advertises global work flexibility. The ad I responded to was for the Netherlands and they sent me to Dubai - After two years of being there I never got a promotion, even though I consecutively got bonuses and a raise. After a year of hard work and grinding to fix their systems with no teammates they switched my manager three weeks before the evaluation cycle - I quit to get another job that pays me 5x what they paid me - If you value your sanity and are an English speaking developer then consider yourself warned
