Pros

Don't recommend to work in this company, too strong Asian culture.

Cons

A public company with tiny manufacturer management. Unclear job boundary and responsibility, just follow top leading to do everything, wasting human resource. Fast is everything even if without follow SOP.

Pros

1. The benefits are pretty good and better than most bigger companies. 2. Free bread every morning? lol 3. Stable job but not very exciting. 4. I believe in the company's vision. 5. Upper level management has solid goals and leadership.

Cons

1. You are expected to be at work after hours even when it is absolutely not necessary just for "face time". 2. Depending on what department you work for, it can be great or it can be hell. 3. Some employees can be quite aggressive in their attitude. 4. Most people aren't that helpful unless they are your "friends". It's like pulling teeth sometimes. 5. Turn over is pretty high for younger employees. The culture isn't a match to most millennials. 6. Parking can be lacking at times. 7. A lot of legacy workers that I feel don't do much but just milk the system until their retirement. Pulling a lot of dead weight. 8. A proper performance review system is quite lacking. Most big companies do vertical reviews as well as lateral reviews. 9. Work life balance isn't the greatest. I feel that if you take time off, you are judged for it.
