Pros

Some employees are nice people. It's not their fault that the company is ran by a gambler and a bunch of politicians

Cons

The CEO and top management are a bunch of pretentious politicians IF YOU PLAN TO WORK FOR THIS COMPANY, DON'T, even more if it is on sales. The owner and the management are exploiters and don't have management skills whatsoever. More importantly, they're stubborn in their stupidity and don't listen to the advice of their middle/senior managers. There is no HR department. If you have any question or complain, you need to go to your line or senior manager. Financially, this company is the least transparent corporation I have ever seen. The CEO tightly manages everything, there is no CFO or COO and the people at their accounts department want to quit every other day. Some, if not all of the positive reviews this company has in this website, have been written by employees at the request of the CEO. On a last note, a socially-crippled person should not be CEO of any company.

Pros

None, free black coffee only

Cons

Finance HK counterpart tends to present well initially, with problematic behaviors emerging only after several months (true color) Management culture is toxic and highly unprofessional. Communication is poor, and explanations are often misunderstood or dismissed, even when clearly expressed in English. Leadership operates with a “we are always right” mentality, leaving no room for discussion or clarification. There is excessive nitpicking and micromanagement, with minor issues blown out of proportion. Worse, management tends to twist employees’ words and use them against both individuals and the team, creating unnecessary conflict. This behavior appears intentional, fostering tension and encouraging internal disputes rather than collaboration. I am the 10th Finance Manager in this role, which strongly reflects the lack of stability, support, and effective leadership within the organization. Overall, the environment is stressful, confrontational, and unsupportive, making it difficult for employees to work effectively or feel respected.
