Rigid and Hierarchical, Very hard if you are not Chinese speaking - Senior Backend Engineer Binance Employee Review

- Severe lack of transparency. You only know what your team is doing, and you don't know what other teams are out there and how they relate to yours. - Everything is confidential so you cannot view code you depend on like of CICD pipelines for example - Very stressful and high workload, often expected to work weekends - No testing culture - No code review culture, so a lot of low quality, untested code is committed - Technology is rigid and outdated, and because of the way the versioning of components is designed, everything has to move together which is very slow - The vast majority of the tech team is Chinese, with most having very bad english, so if you don't speak it, a lot of communication is done behind your back, and a even if they want to, most colleagues do not feel comfortable communicating with you in english - The sphere of tools and libraries are not familiar to non Chinese - Blame culture - Very hierarchical, leads only care about achieving their goals, and not the benefit of the wider team.
