Pros

The pay is good (trying to type enough words to get to the 20 word minimum because I don't have 20 good words to say about this place).

Cons

No support of women, very close-minded and old school mentality. Feels like I went back 10 years in my career. Little flexibility. A Chinese company with Chinese work all the time culture. Only considered to be working if you are chained to your desk, come in early and stay late. No room for growth and they do not do anything to professionally develop their people. No accountability for upper management.

First, thanks for your comment! Secondly, we are sorry you have a low opinion of Lenovo. You must be in a global role. Global roles at Lenovo do have off hour calls. Work life balance is important at Lenovo, but I'd suggest that you bring this up as a priority for you. We never want anyone to feel overwhelmed. If you are uncomfortable with this, I'd suggest reaching out to your HR partner. Another tip, all Lenovo jobs are posted internally and we have seen folks in marketing move up by applying to these internal jobs. You may want to try that too. Lenovo doesn't have a culture of hand holding, so you may need to take the lead on your concerns. Great feedback and thank you.

Cons

Company is very slow to change. Executive leadership does not care about employee work-life balance at all. Was routinely expected to be on calls as early as 6AM and as late as midnight on the same day. When I raised concerns about sustainability, I was put on a PIP
