Great employer branding, terrible reality - Recensione dipendente - Project Manager presso Shopee

Terrible working culture. More than half of my department were from the mainland, and with it comes a certain different work culture as well. Very inflexible to change, reluctance to adopt new ideas and suggestions in improving work processes. Chinese management comes with the expectation of OT, where leaving ON TIME or even 30 minutes past working hours will get you questioned on why you're leaving. Expect to work until 11pm on multiple days a week just to meet departmental expectations. HR statistics on OT were also skewed, I witnessed first hand, how some colleagues had to deliberately submit heavily edited reports on working hours, cutting the actual OT hours worked in the past month by more than 80% just to provide a visually appealing result back to the HR department. Many colleagues share negative sentiments on the work life balance upon joining, and are simply looking to get the experience and move on to the next, better workplace as soon as possible
