Pros

Can't think of any reason to take a job at Lenovo in the US unless you are desperate.

Cons

Lenovo's agenda is to manage costs and maintain power in China. No investment in US employee training. Very little opportunity for career advancement. US executives don't have any power and are afraid to share infornation with employees. Executives promised US acquired employees the moon to keep them just long enough to transition the work to china.

We would have to disagree here. Lenovo has thousands of employees in the US and has no intention of leaving. It seems that you came over from the IBM X86 acquisition. We are under a transition with that particular business to reduce costs and increase revenue as the business was not doing particularly well while with IBM. We expect solid results in the near future. We have done this successfully before with another IBM acquisition which made us the #1 PC company in the world. Also, we are a global company. Our execs all share influence regardless of location. Thanks for your time while you were with us and best wishes to you

Pros

Absolutely love my team, people, culture, and work events. Genuinely I can't think of any cons. 3 days in-person, 2 days remote. Best work life balance ever, and great pay. Even intern benefits are amazing

Cons

None that I can think of
