Pros

(01) Nice air-conditioning. (02) Many lunch spots nearby.

Cons

(01) Poor management. Supervisors claimed that they are flexible and open to new ideas. In fact, they are providing minimal assistance to employees for applying new solutions. (02) Unrealistic expectations on employees. Management expects employees to achieve all the tasks with a tight schedule, even if you are new. (03) Unfriendly colleagues and pretentious management team. Seniors like to claim themselves seniors, but I hardly see they delivering high outputs. They are most efficient when they pressurise juniors to work. Colleagues in another department are unwilling to help when it's a cross-department project. (04) Font line staff underpaid. If you are talented and is seeking entry opportunities, really think twice before jumping into this boat. Their pay is slower than companies of the same size. (05) Messy job titles. Management accepts staff to create job titles for themselves after they are onboard. You could be a Digital Innovation Lead who has the same pay as a UX/UI designer. (06) Seniors overpaid, especially the boss. (07) Weird social norms. Seniors told explicitly to juniors that using mobile phones are discouraged and that they should focus on work. 9.5 hours work-day is not short at all and still they don't accept juniors to rest for a while. (08) No intent to retain talents. Management tends to replace a staff instead of teaching them how to improve. They also don't admit that they hire the wrong person for the role at the beginning. * Don't trust any reviews here. It might be my personal experience only, but be highly cautious to the reviews that praised the company as "agile and productive".

Pros

Dynamic and flexible working hours

Cons

This company is a total mess! The employees are miserable because they have no morale and communication is a joke. Every day, they change things up, not because they're innovative, but because they read something and decide to copy it. The atmosphere there is toxic. People are scared to even talk or bond with their colleagues. Imagine being reported for being on your phone for just 10 seconds! Seriously, productivity drops after a while, and no one expects us to be robots. And get this, the whole place is run by a dictator who thinks they can compete with the big shots in the industry. But let's face it, most people haven't even heard of their company, Peplink. No wonder they have such a high turnover rate. They don't care about why people are leaving, and they certainly don't listen to anyone's complaints. The company culture is so disengaging that no employee wants to be a part of it. They force us into these brainwashing sessions with their made-up ideology. It's like living in a fantasy world! And there's this one team controlled by a wannabe celebrity or influencer. She struts around, poking her nose into other teams' business like she just stepped out of a horror movie and a TV drama, like The Ring and The Queen's Classroom. They claim to offer opportunities you won't find anywhere else. But guess what? These opportunities are constantly blocked by their made-up term "Peplink Style" that no one can even explain. While we can't ignore the fact that there are friendly and competent managers in the company, it's a different story when it comes to the managers in the MKT. The managers are on a whole different level of incompetence. Instead of doing their own work, she spends all "their" time reassigning tasks to their subordinates, and get this, even the CFO ends up doing their job! Time to shake things up and make sure the managers step up and take responsibility for their own tasks. No more passing the buck around! Oh, and let's not forget about the cherry on top - the company loves to pay peanuts for hard work. They expect you to give your all, but when it comes to compensation, they conveniently forget what a fair paycheck looks like. It's like they want us to work for the love of it, but last I checked, bills don't pay themselves. So, yeah, that's the scoop on this messed-up company. Stay far away from this company.

Pros

- If getting paid on time every month is, this is the only pros - high quality air filtering is installed, which they very proud of. Might someone decided this has asthma and get benefit, I dont know. But I know this doesn't help as you've got to go out to dine and washroom, where it locates in urban industrial high traffic area. The proven indoor air qualify is a joke and it is like reminding staffs there is toxic air outside.

Cons

- lots of inside knowledge but no one would lie to share, as keeping secrets is a only way to survive in high pressure - provided wierd broken chairs and workbenches instead of investing several hundred bucks, how can you expect from those empolyer to concern your welfare? - low efficiency and culture only encourages staffs to work overtime - listed company, so expect income, staffs and working hours to grow, but not the compensation - the business is saturated and the growth is very limited
