Pros

Good salary, benefits and bonuses (which can be quite substantial).

Cons

Twice a year formal reviews that affect bonuses and career, constant pressure. The company is divided into two groups, low cost and high cost (China and everywhere else). They are constantly looking to move jobs into the low cost area so don't get too comfortable. They ask for dedication to the company, but don't offer the same in return.

While it is true that some areas are lower cost than others, Lenovo has recently made huge investments in your area, opening 2 new buildings with hundreds of new employees due to our recent acquisition. In the US, Lenovo typically fills 500+ jobs a year consistently in the US and that has not changed. Our US headcount is growing, not declining. Our employees are critical to our success. Nothing is more critical to a business than top talent and top products with a great strategy. Thank you for your contributions while at Lenovo and thank you for your input!
