Pros

Pay - for the industry very competitive in Arizona. Team - personally have a great team. Cultural experience - being able to travel to Taiwan was amazing for me. I learned a lot, not just about the company but about the country and people.

Cons

Upper management - too many Taiwan managers/directors. Need to have a balance of Taiwanese and US. Team feel - not consistent across the company. Work life balance - could be better. HQ - holds too much control over day to day. Rules and regulations are very different in the US vs Taiwan. Expectations - HQ wants to control the people sent here for their temporary (3 year commitment) assignments. Including working after their normal US workday.

Pros

Seldom do lay off, but is it true? Just simply always shortage of human resources, low pay and high working hours.

Cons

Low compensation and high working hours. Employer provides no flexibility.
