Pros

Employee benefits are quite good, better than most local companies. Employee insurance is paid for by the company and you can pay subsidized premiums for your family dependents. Company also offer Employee Stock Purchase Plans(ESPP) once you passed the probation period.

Cons

Salaries for most of the employees(except management level) are lower than industry benchmarks. Work-life balance is minimal. Will prefer to hire foreigners than locals unless they run out of foreign pass quotas. Employee turn-over-rate is quite high in non-admin departments.

Pros

Great people Good work-life balance, on the production team at least Fairly competitive pay structure for advanced roles if compared with companies in the valley Reasonable performance expectations

Cons

Boneheaded senior management. Director level and below are down to earth and capable of executing, but senior management all brought in from other companies in the last year or two are determined to fail while having feel-good company-wide chats about inclusion instead of building a realistic roadmap. Pay is also very much NOT competitive for labor employees, or for advanced roles when compared with any company just 20 miles east or south.
