Pros

The team I'm working with is amazing. Everyone respects each other and is very helpful. The site manager is also very approachable. Steep learning curve and a very hands-on job. Learning is never ending in this field. Great allowance, bonus and AWS. Benefits and compensations are amazing and competitive. The company always emphasises its core values and they implement it. The corporate management is very approachable towards field engineers.

Cons

OT and standby duties, especially when job demand is high (Installation, etc.)

Pros

Opportunities to support global activities

Cons

Heavy micromanagement — frequent revisions on ppt to minor details like font size and colors. Frequently calling staffs even after work hours and lunch time. Manager often takes on additional work from other teams without considering current team workload, So the manager appears supportive and “nice” externally but creates additional burden to the subordinates. Manager controls team budget strictly for team-building activities (events and meals), team members feel restrictive and reluctant to participate, for example team members dare not order appetizers, dessert or drinks on top of entrees during team events. Manager used up most of the travel budget. Biz trip and personal travel boundaries are unclear, especially when manager frequently has business trips overlaps with personal travel. Seems like manager using biz trip to get free hotel and free air tickets for PTO.
