Pros

Salary is good, package is good.

Cons

It is a selfish environment, senior managers and senior managers, of dubious competence, do not take into account senior hired experts; if hired, you will most likely end up doing monkey work. Better looking elsewhere if you want to improve your career.

Pros

Good name on the CV

Cons

No phone given, all products used are not huawei products (they dont want to pay for this) laptops, phones etc all not huawei products used. Contractors are seen as 2nd class citizens and not given the same benefits as perm staff and its made very obvious Meetings will always move to being in Chinese and you could sit there for 40 mins not understanding a word and no one cares that english is supposed to be the official business language Chinese Culture is to laugh in your face when they disagree with you and its so hurtful and can really hurt confidence

Huawei- A well crafted lie

Pros

Initial salary package is competitive

Cons

Little to no progression for Westerners: Your progression is decided by teams in HQ, using an opaque process which is confusing, and lacks contextual information which is key to measuring your performance, such as poor local tooling. This leaves you little to no opportunity to grow as a professional, or progress your life. Poor tooling: Lack of appropriate tools/software, combined with lengthy procurement processes severely limits productivity An official business language that is not used: English is described as the business language of the company, and yet individuals in key roles have a poor grasp of the English language, causing communication breakdown, and in some cases, exclusion of Western staff when English is inevitably abandoned. Lack of competitive benefits: No bike to work scheme, an excessively long time to implement the taxsaver ticket, and an overall poor track record of matching the benefits of other global giants. Large percentage of staff are contractors/ex-pats: There is a lack of security in knowing that your colleagues are not permanent, causing information and key skills to be lost given the high turnover such an environment promotes
