Pros

I made a lot friend there. I think it was because we all felt the same. You do get very hands on training if you are entry level. If you are beyond that, read below. It's a great place to learn and looks very good on your resume because it's a major retailer and a very big brand name. You also might learn Chinese if you do not know how to speak it already. Again, I stress that one of the best things about newegg is the people. There's probably about 20 people there to avoid, but the rest are fine.

Cons

Management was completely insane. I think they need to hire someone to constantly remind them that they are in the United States and not China. There's something called labor laws. There's no parking. They hire a lot of arrogant people to be in senior positions. That is to say not everyone is bad. If you are an expect in your field, prepare to teach a team outsourced to china or train your counterpart. It's to replace you, I mean "help" you. Wages are next to nothing. Raises are very small and benefits are expensive. Management pretends to care about the workers.

Pros

Great learning opportunities with exposure to multiple aspects of the business. Fast-paced environment that encourages continuous growth and adaptability. Clear team structure and well-defined responsibilities, allowing employees to stay focused and execute efficiently. Plenty of opportunities to take ownership of projects and make a meaningful impact. Collaborative teams and strong cross-functional communication.

Cons

As a global company with a diverse workforce, communication styles can vary across teams. In some situations, discussions may take place in languages other than English, which can occasionally create challenges for employees who are not fluent in those languages.
