    Overall a decent company to join
    The good thingsAlways alot of new things to learn and pickup. New technology in the refresh, new projects, learning different background and culture from other countries. opportunity for business travel and to learn new thing, depending on the department you joined and the position you accepted. Not much of office politics internally. Company and staff welfare is reasonable. New renovated office. Mostly are nice colleagues.
    The challengesCurrently still on old technology, and is quiet back dated. But the IT has been working to perform tech refresh activities. And things are getting better as days goes on. Everything else is great. I just love what I am doing over here.
