Pros

1. most of R&D employees are Chinese, if you can't speak English well, as long as you are technical savvy, it's a good company for you in North America .

Cons

few social activities, actually no kind of company culture, HR should do more work

Pros

Company is handling the downturn well. The compensation is very fair, well above average for Vancouver. The technology is exciting.

Cons

There is a lot of Mandarin spoken in the office, leaving English speakers feeling left out. Social interaction is nearly non-existant.

Employees aren’t made to feel valued

Recommend
Business Outlook

Pros

Company has a good reputation in the industry so it’s a nice name to have on your resume

Cons

Layoffs while understaffed already As an employee here, you feel like means to an end rather than a human being contributing value to the company Even if individual members of leadership try to advocate, top-down seems to reinforce poor management of employees. Very dismissive of anything outside of what makes the company more money, including limiting growth or hiring enough staff. This is how myself and several others I work with feel, but of course, experience is subjective so feel free to explore it yourself. Just ensure if you choose to work here that you have backups in case you want to leave and don’t feel it’s a fit for you
