I like your post. Informative. I thank you, as I have been considering returning to Hong Kong lately as I enjoyed being in Asia a few years ago. I have been reading all over the prune to get info and most of it is useless. Some guys complaining about private schooling and paying too much taxes?? What?? Excuse me...where are the taxes cheaper and not on a contract? But the info your providing is what I really needed. I want a real feeling for the company and the working conditions. That is where the difference between being happy and not happy really matters. It is a well paying job comparitively speaking....but that little bit extra may not bring you happiness at the expense of an unhappy work life. Anybody else got more experiences to dissuade some prospectives?
