    From what I’ve read about working at Chinese tech companies, you will not get to work remotely. In fact, you will be required to work in an office for 10 hrs a day instead of coming and going as you please.

    Just look at the TSMC factory in AZ as an example. Taiwanese work expectations are not very compatible with how top US talent wants to work.

        Agreed, I wasn’t exactly sure how well it would translate countries, but it was the first solid thing that came to mind.

              Ay least we agree, the people living in Taiwan do not believe they are a part of China then, correct?

                people living in taiwan are probably not a monolithic block.

                but the cia has been doing some mighty propaganda work over there, so who knows if they think being a colony is worth it.

                  So, the people of Taiwan, who largely support the current government there are all too stupid to not fall under the influence of the CIA?

                  Sounds racist af to me… those dumb Taiwanese are incapable of knowing what they want, without a daddy state telling them what is good for them.

                  Ok, colonizer.

      They’re a big believer in 996, so 9am to 9pm, six days a week. Sadly, this is creeping into western tech too, but is commonplace in China.
