Business Outlook

Pros

The benefit package is better than average.

Cons

After several Burberry retail stores in Hong Kong closed, Burberry CEO concluded that closing poorly performed Customer Service Department in Hong Kong within a year. The management team tends to do personal attack with entourage and have specific staff to take initiative and personalise corporate regulatory operations. This is the main cause that so many foreign staffs left in short term.
