Another great suggestion. Hire great people and trust them. This is what we intend to do. Lenovo wants to focus on hiring top talent and winning vs our competition. Global roles with remote management are always more challenging due to time zones and communications via email. Please feel free to work with management on your concerns. Good managers will listen and make adjustments. Contrary to your cons, Lenovo is quite concerned for you. If you don't feel comfortable discussing with your manager, feel free to talk to HR. We not only want you to be successful, we want you to be happy here too. Thanks for your input and all your hard work!

Pros

Lenovo makes good products. The base compensation package is ok but they have a good bonus program if you can get on your boss's good side long enough to earn one. Some managers allow for flexible schedules.

Cons

Terrible corporate structure. I had 9 bosses in 5 years due to almost constant restructuring. Impossible to develop rapport with coworkers and management. In 3 consecutive years my role was outsourced to China and I was forced to search for another position. There is a constant fear of layoffs. Promotions are nonexistent. Lots of evening conference calls to China.

Pros

Good pay for the Morrisville, NC, area. Great bonuses.

Cons

Leadership is lacking. Decisions are often made with little to no analysis. Most global decisions are being forced on the entire company by the China region, with no concern for the effects on other markets. This has proven to be an extremely damaging strategy resulting in teams that are starving for resources, budgets, and work-life balance. No long term opportunity for advancement unless you're a Chinese national.
