      Terrible for non-Chinese

      Software engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Free breakfast, dinner and snacks Lots of events and trainings

      Cons

      - Some teams are good, but some teams are awful. What you do is largely different from what they mentioned in the JD, which is quite disappointing. Some managers don't really know how to lead a team or understand the business well. - Your day ends after 7 pm. If you want to get free dinner, you have to stay later. - This company is full of people from PRC and most of them speak terrible English. They speak Chinese everywhere so you may feel isolated since you don't know what they are talking about. BTW most managers are from PRC. If you love PRCs, this can be a good place for you.

      Dear Software Engineer, We truly appreciate you taking the time to give us feedback . We truly appreciate you taking the time to give us feedback, and can only imagine how frustrating the interactions with our supervisors are for you. It is true that we hire many people from Mainland China, but we also believe that employees should voice out their opinions or communicate with their colleagues about such issues. That said, we would like to understand your pain points, and hopefully open an investigation with regards to the team and people you were working with. Would you like be open to a confidential conversation with our HR representative? If you're willing, please send us an email [hr.experience@shopee.com] and we will take it from there. Thank you.
