Pros

With excellent global standard. A good stepstone where you can adapt yourself to a global company.

Cons

High work load with salary under average. Work place is far away from downtown. Do not care for employees. See no hope but cost cut down unwisely since transformation. These make the company be a training camp for other good company. Can't keep a professional middle-management team. Then as chain reaction loosing experienced staff.
