Pros

In a small company you can wear a lot of different hats and get plenty of good experience. The management genuinely wants to be doing a good job, even if it isn't always apparent.

Cons

Salaries are low, moral is low, staff is not very experienced leading to a lot of inefficiencies and making it a difficult place to learn. There are a lot of politics in this small company and not a ton of structure, making it easy for one project to make you into a hero or villain, annual reviews are haphazard. This company is VERY time focused, in some departments lunches are reviewed very strictly.

Pros

Employees in Taipei headquarters are the only ones treated fairly. They are the only ones who said good things about the company. If you are a engineer in Taiwan you will be treated well. That is how the company develops good products.

Cons

No pay. No respect. No training. Do not work in Sales unless you want to be treated like GARBAGE! Do not take a job from these people! You will regret it. US employees are treated very bad. Everything the guy said in the "Synology America (Bellevue) is a sinking ship - avoid!" review is true!
