      Terrible place to work if you are a contractor at Aspiegel

      Human resources assistant
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good name on the CV

      Cons

      No phone given, all products used are not huawei products (they dont want to pay for this) laptops, phones etc all not huawei products used. Contractors are seen as 2nd class citizens and not given the same benefits as perm staff and its made very obvious Meetings will always move to being in Chinese and you could sit there for 40 mins not understanding a word and no one cares that english is supposed to be the official business language Chinese Culture is to laugh in your face when they disagree with you and its so hurtful and can really hurt confidence

      Complicated Feelings

      Research scientist
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Lots of resources available nowadays to do projects with. - Generally longer term outlook than a lot of other companies. - Some very good and highly smart colleagues to work with. - The good managers will listen to the merits of competent technical arguments. - Solid pay and reasonable benefits. - If you work hard and get results that lead to good performance reviews, you will often be rewarded.

      Cons

      - Culture is very "Chinese". And the "wolf culture" can create an unfriendly and competitive atmosphere. - Non-fluency in Mandarin limits opportunities for growth and promotion, and separates you from the insiders. - Overtime is expected when necessary and work/life balance is not a priority. - Lack of trust from HQ, and lots of greyness and uncertainty in terms of feedback about progress and projects. - External geopolitical stuff is a distraction that can add pressure to the work environment as well as outside social relationships with non-ex-pats. - Bureaucratic systems can be confusing to navigate and understand.

      Join if you only want to work

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      1. Projects in Huawei are good. Good technology stack.

      Cons

      1. No work life balance. You will always spend most of your time in office. 2. Management here is very poor. They expect you to slog 12 hrs daily. 3. No work from home or any such facility. 4. You have to maintain 9 hrs average in month. 5. You have to punch before 10 am and after 5 pm daily. 6. Chinese culture is bad. 7. Managers will always try to find ways for you such that you will stay late nights. 8. Only join if you have no options anywhere else and get out after 1 year. 9. Don't join if you are from tier-1 college, they don't deserve you.
