I’ve heard the pay is quite generous and the benefits are good too, but if you’re considering joining the R&D department, please read the cons or go through the interview before making a decision...
There are two R&D departments, and I think what the previous colleague told me was about a different one. So let me share the terrible experience my friend had there! The manager loved making grand promises and presented many ambitious plans to upper management, but when handing the project over to my friend, provided no funding at all—just a few books in Simplified Chinese and a computer—and thought that was enough to develop something new. When my friend went to discuss it with the manager, the manager actually shouted back, “I didn’t take your money, so why should I care about your work?” The manager’s emotional outbursts and verbal abuse toward employees were also commonplace. Basically, it sounded like a department that couldn’t produce anything. In the end, my friend even developed depression because of this job. It took a great deal of effort to persuade them to resign, and they continued seeing a doctor and suffering from the illness for quite some time..... If you’re thinking of joining this R&D department, you really need to think it over again and again!!
