Pros

- brand name on the CV

Cons

- unless you speak cantonese and part of the 'in' crowd you won't get anywhere (trust me I'm part Asian) - ALL the senior management in GRCT are Cantonese...no diversity at all - One of the Directors picks up girls from clubs and hires them even though they are not remotely able to perform the job required - GRCT is all about showcases and PR - they don't care about the actual IT technology. If you create a spreadsheet with a few formulas, they will label it an automation tool and present it to a showcase saying they solved the business problems by 'automating' sth... - A lot of bullying from Management and favouritism overall - External hiring is rigged by referrals/personal friends who aren't qualified for the role - expect your business stakeholders to hate you due to the bad rep of GRCT - no transparency - they will promise you X and then pretend they never did and say you asked for Y, not X. - demand you work extra hours for no additional pay or compensation - all to serve as part of their Technology showcases
