Pros

You work on multiple technologies with multiple customers so you get an insight about the telecom market more quickly than any other vendor and you groom your multi tasking skills. The payscale is good and they give chance to new talent. Huawei won't reject anyone just because they havent worked in an specific area and would rather give chance to people who reflect to be good and quick learners in their interview.

Cons

Some times you can feel like you aren't valued enough and most times the management wont change their ways even if majority of the staff disagrees. procedures to build technical competence of staff needs a lot of improvement

Pros

If your early in your career, single. Some interesting projects. Trying to address corruption, bribery.

Cons

Worse managers, with little experience. No attempt to improve managers or leadership. Worse learning culture of the 10 companies I have worked for and the 28 companies I have consulted with over the years. Little to no power given to local people. Low to no trust culture. No adapting to local customer, employee, or supplier culture. Two separate cultures internally everywhere globally. It is so bad they have Chinese canteens at many locations globally, but only serve Chinese. Separate management meetings of Chinese and local managers. Non-Chinese employees are treated as 2nd class employees. Non-Chinese are not part of the career advancement and promotion system. Very high turnover of local employees globally: 4X global benchmarks in the industry. Corruption is rampant in China and many other markets globally at Huawei. At 2012 3rd party professional study of European labor market indicated that only 18% of employees would recommend to a friend, colleague as a place to work.
