Language barrier: Majority of meetings in the regional BI are in Mandarin. It will be quite tough for people who cannot speak in Mandarin.
Narrow career path: Brainwash is popular there and people are working extremely hard to fight for promotions while senior managers prefer hiring externals rather than promoting people internally.
If you want to explore other departments, don’t think about it, many dirty actions are waiting for you.
Bad management: Top down culture especially being told it is top down directly in the dept. Inconsistent decision making, incapable managers with terrible micromanagement and bad scope management. Result driven and squeeze people with tight deadline while do not care about how late people are staying in the office. Senior leads care about own interests which are against company’s interests. No integrity at all.
HR is not supportive: The company does not have any independent team to hear your voice and HR likes to execute management decisions without careful investigation when unfair things happened.
Quite Big turnover rate in the dept. Because of above reasons and others reasons beyond your imagination.
