      -- open and honest culture -- customer focused, bias for action -- chance to work with some really smart guys -- a lot of opportunities for career development for a SDE -- Intriguing projects

      Cons

      -- Too much to learn just to get familiar with all the stuff you need for work (SDE stands for Someone who Do Everything). -- China Dev team is not well supported by senior developers in the headquarter

      Pros

      Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

      Cons

      You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
