Pros

Open and democratic culture which is dying with current China leadership. Workspace is nice.

Cons

No continuity between team changes, projects died and knowledge lost whenever someone goes to work on something else. Non stop re-org or re-structure over the years. entire team around the world got laid off then the company later introduced "new structure" to compensate their functions. Localizing in China also means completely losing company culture. Data is no longer relevant when the leaders have more important opinions than others. If data presented do not support local leader’s opinion it gets dismissed.
