Pros

Afforded the opportunity to rapidly learn and deploy ideas within the solar/PV manufacturing space, which is a first for the United States.

Cons

Navigating the Chinese/Local AZ culture within a high-volume manufacturing environment is a considerable challenge. Chinese bosses demand a siloed culture, consistent with Chinese-style operations with what is mirrored at HQ. Lots of friction and arguing.
