Vantaggi
1. Initial salary is made very tempting, but hikes are not great after joining. 2. Work at individual level can be interesting as it is research oriented.
Svantaggi
1. Chinese BIAS is clearly seen, if you are chinese may be you will find it easy and make good network with the real bosses in China. 2. All important and required technical documentation is in Chinese 3. UK center is only a consultancy center, work on some novel feature thats not explored in China and then convince them to try it. Most of the proposal over last 5 years I have seen have only died slow death with no takers. 4. The bosses are Chinese expat that keep changing every 3 years. 5. Join only if you dont have any other job and are desperate, eventually you will regret joining the company, thats what I have seen.
