Pros

Great people and an excellent place to network with others from all walks of life. Instructors are very experienced and offer a wealth of knowledge

Cons

Management is awful, they do not value employees at all. Every month there was at least one person leaving the company because of management. The team I was working with (before they all left) was highly motivated with a strong desire to improve the business. However ideas we brought to the table during brainstorm sessions went nowhere and blame is placed by management on the team whenever something goes wrong. There is no business strategy or direction because the management has no experience in business, managing people or has any understanding of the local market. Working in GA is like sailing with a blind and deaf captain. The management is beyond incompetent. Other branches may be managed better but avoid Hong Kong.
