      Pros

      Recognizable company with strong financial backing

      Cons

      Constant strategy and goal changes China asks for input from the US team and then completely ignores it Weird hours due to time zones Lack of clear leadership Layers of bureaucracy to go through for every little thing Insurmountable cultural differences
