Fake people, fake culture

Business Outlook

Pros

- Free food and travel facilities. - Annual Employee Family events. - ESPP and insurance offerings are good. - (Used to be a) good office workplace. - Competitive pay (at the cost of no learning).

Cons

- Bootlicking culture set up by fake and arrogant management. - You can "grow" here only if you can show off your work. The volume and beauty matters more than the context. - Forget on-site if you can't be a bootlicker of the senior management. - Not at all recommended for people who really want to grow technically in their career. - No HR involvement in extracurricular activities. If you get involved, it's apparently your loss in the eyes of the management. - You're not allowed to make mistakes. One mistake and you're doomed.

Great company, but not the management

Business Outlook

Pros

A lot of smart and hard working people. You can learn from each other everyday. CEO is smart and have great vision to shift the business from GPU gaming to AI, deep learning, robotic, autonomous car, and professional VR. The company is leading the technology trend and the stock is doing super well.

Cons

C player middle management and they are just lazy functional managers. Very political and treating their staff as scapegoats for the mistakes they made. A lot of good employees left because of favoritism, unfair workload, inner circle politic, and lack of transparent communication.

Nice place to work unless you want to be compensated

Pros

High-tech, cutting edge, state-of-the-art, culturally diverse. They've got a great cafeteria and facility. But that's about all. Is that twenty words?

Cons

Do not pay on time. Sometimes I had to wait two months to be paid. When you have a complaint, they don't listen.
