Pros

- Flexible working environment - Good remuneration and benefits

Cons

- Worst finance function ever seen. Accounting systems are developed in-house and are plain stupid. Run away if your role requires financial information. - Interaction with China counterparts (where the leadership roles predominantly are) is a massive pain. They think China is the world and does not trust your local expertise, and expect lots of reworking and re-answering questions which were already addressed previously.
