“The ship has sunk”

Verified User Former Employee · p**** · Director of Product Development - Mar 21, 2022

ProsGood coworkers, hard-working staff, fun projects. Good creative environment at first.

ConsWhere to begin? From a leadership perspective the toxicity of this place starts at the very top with incompetence, ignorance, and just sheer dishonesty. The BI team was probably one of our greatest assets until they were told to fudge the numbers to make our sales and growth bigger and better. Our in-house development tools were rudimentary at best with many resorting to using illegal versions of softwares.

When it came to compensation the company discriminated against local Chinese staff by overpaying some truly incompetent foreign (mainly two or three managers) while paying highly skilled Chinese staff 1/2 or a 1/3 of what the other staff was making. The management in the R&D and sales teams had an unrealistic WLB expectation and required people to work during holidays, weekends, and even special events like honeymoons. Not even kidding.

Our US based team had OK perks but we're often left out of major decisions even though the company claimed to be US headquartered.

Reasons for ResignationAfter scaling the company to close to a million paying users I chose family over work. My marriage was worth more than what they wanted to offer me to stay and run different lines of business. Glad I did. My marriage is great and the company is going bankrupt.
