Pros

Strong PC division. Business and management have a chance at Lenovo.

Cons

Weak Enterprise sector. Not for developers. Don't let the brand new buildings fool you. It's just an empty shell.

Hmm....not sure we agree here. While it is true the PC business is our anchor, to say it is a mirage is a bit misleading. Lenovo is undergoing a major transformation from PC only business to PC+ over the course of just a few years. We also just took on 2 major acquisitions at the same time (IBM X86 Server and Motorola Mobility) These organizations were not performing particularly well when we were buying them. This business takes time and investment to bear fruit. We ask that you have patience. Few thought Lenovo could turn around the IBM PC business we acquired 10 years ago....now Lenovo is #1 in PC's globally. Thanks for your feedback and thanks for your time at Lenovo...although we disagree, we would like your support to reach our goals together.

Thanks for your input. We do have a nice cafeteria and great location. We are currently in a rare large Server acquisition that must be transformed to become successful for the long term. Our intention is to build a fully sustainable profitable business that is beneficial to our employees long term.

Pros

Still a young company, so you have a fair amount of freedom to try new things

Cons

China, China, China - it's all about China and Chinese culture - and eventually anyone not from China will be replaced No room for advancement - terrible career planning, very little mobility, stuck in same job forever Constantly shifting direction from leadership Extremely hierarchical - if you aren't an Executive Director or above, your opinion does not matter Hero worship of leadership - they can do no wrong Skimpy raises
