- NullPrefix 8y agoAre they paid better than burger flippers in California? Absolute numbers, not relative. Discount team doesn't really need to care about your problems.
- woolvalley 8y agoThey were paid better than the typical tech company in beijing, so definitely not a discount team. It was a combination of a culture that valued quantity over quality & long hours, management and time zones. When some staff moved over to the US office they got better. Mostly because they realized that the work style in the USA is much nicer as an employee than the one in China. I had a much better experience later with contractor eastern european teams, who came from the start caring about quality. I didn't have to fight a cultural mismatch. I know other people have had issues with EE teams, but nothing is perfect. I was a jr engineer back then, so I didn't have much power to change it. I eventually left for other reasons.
- kamaal 8y agoAgain the same thing. Rewards don't flow in the direction of merit, so there is no incentive to deliver quality stuff.
