Pros

The salary is a bit higher than the market average in Hong Kong, and the benefits are good.

Cons

- This is a China-style firm, not recommended for Hong Konger. - 996 working hours - Every year, one of the staff members will be terminated. - They don’t fully trust the Hong Konger o Mainland Chinese -> Singaporese / Foreigner -> Hong Konger - They will also use this order to assign the job, and the HKer will receive all the fewer KPI jobs. - Political environment - They will use the China style to run the project and solve the issue, rather than do the SWOT/RCA analysis - Everything is demanding, and they always need it ASAP. - The high KPI ranking will only be given to Staff liked by the team lead; if the team lead doesn’t like you, they will give you a low KPI grade and terminate you because of your low performance, even though you are very busy/have a high workload. - Mainland Chinese new joiners will easy to get a higher grading than the -> Singaporese / Foreigner -> Hong Konger
