Pros

Free coffee and getting paid on time — Truly groundbreaking perks

Cons

On my very first day, I witnessed a verbal argument between the CEO and an employee over a basic issue — truly inspiring behavior, and definitely a green flag, right? Despite the smiling faces, every employee quietly vents their frustration the moment the boss steps out. (The boss isn't in the office anyway) Management? A true masterclass in blame-shifting. You're held responsible for everything — including technical issues caused by entirely different teams. Hilarious, if you enjoy dark small firm comedy. Solutions? You’ll propose them. Again and again — only to be ignored. roblems? They never get fixed. Or they “get fixed” just enough to repeat the cycle. Priorities swing from 0 to 100 daily, and you’ll be reprimanded for not delivering tasks that changed halfway through. Last-minute “urgent” meetings? A daily reminder of the absence of planning. They claim to be “data-driven” but the data comes from… friends. Not sources. Not platforms. Not even Google, just hearsay. Bonus: Accessing internal tools requires toggling your VPN on and off multiple times just to log into their self-built system. Efficiency at its finest. There’s no structured onboarding. On day one, you’re expected to execute without context. Ask questions and you’re either told it’s “confidential” or redirected to complete requests that were never realistic to begin with. Competitor analysis? Not a thing — unless you count the company in the office next door. Apparently, unicorns aren’t considered real competition. Interns and full-time staff alike receive no proper training, no mentoring, and zero career development opportunities. Forget overtime pay — this is a "just do what I say" environment. Real talent isn’t recognized, unless you're a senior manager taking credit for others' work (Rumours from the IT team). And Lets not forget about that hilarious speech from legal team giving example that marketing team is not allow to get client information(not even the brand name) from Customer success or sales team. Maybe just let sales do the job and stop blaming on marketing effort then. Expect outdated workflows wrapped in a rigid, top-down, micromanaging style. Gaslighting is baked into the culture. Even standard information is treated like national secrets, making execution near impossible. You're fully accountable for KPIs, but all decision-making power is hoarded at the top. They actively hire foreigners, then silence them — refusing to implement any strategy tailored to Western markets, while imposing a rigid, outdated Chinese management style. Never mean to be a position for foreigner in this office. Never a place for career growth.

Pros

The pay was alright, not bad but not particularly good either.

Cons

This is by far the worst place I have ever worked at. Management consistently belittles employees in public, yet fails to meet the very standards they criticize others for. Performance issues stem largely from poor managerial practices, but you will still have your competence and character attacked regardless. In short, management believes they are always right despite repeated failures, and they treat employees poorly as a result.

Pros

Nice office. The team is surprisingly lovely. I made friends for a lifetime. Unfortunately, they are all trying to run away too. They give you 13th month... maybe or maybe not. They give you monthly bonus... maybe or maybe not. It depends on the boss and there are not clear criteria on what are the requirements to get it. There is commission..., sure, perhaps 10 bucks per project.

Cons

Let´s start with the CEO. He is the stereotype of elder boss who will treat you contemptuosly and will blame you for not closing deals, despite yu get 0 leads due to company´s decision of not spending enough in marketing tools. Next, even when you get a promising lead, the project will most likely get stuck do to internal inefficient processes. Client´s get tired and choose other companies. Finally, let´s talk about those amazing "benefits". You will have 5 days holidays (average in China but the boss can always offer more and most part of good bosses do so). They include birthday cake and coffee as ¨company benefits¨.... yes, BIRTHDAY CAKE AND FREE COFFEE. Thanks so much. Overall, it´s definitely not a place for foreigners. No growth perspectives and know acknowledegment when you work hard.
