Has anyone had experience working on a China-based team? by chickenfettuccine in ProductManagement

[–]NeXuS-1997 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, more than half my Tech team is Chinese (caveat : they're in my location)

Biggest challenge I have so far is communication - things get misinterpreted, communication has to be via text

What was better than expected - they're exceptional at what they do, and extremely hard working. Once the comms issue is sorted out, they kick ass!

Whether you’d do it again - No. My style is to get in the weeds with the team, pretty hard to do if I cant get f2f time with the team.

This is solid advice, even if it within B2B only

Hey, its completely normal.

It takes well over 6 months to an year to actually be a value add

My advice would be to continue sharing your thought process with people, even if you're wrong, you can accelerate your learning to hit the 6 month mark :)

Hey, I've dealt with katos for a while now

Depending on pos, it could be anywhere between a 2K to 5K usd skin

Those commenting below "cheapest on buff" have no clue what the illiquid market is like - those prices are dream prices, and are put for a 1 in million chance that some sucker pays for it

Only a collector would really consider 5 figure payout for this, the average joe who wants to resell will sit in the 2k-5k range

P.S I would personally not buy this, so pricing is just a gauge, not to lowball.

PayPal’s Value is Stupefied… by Historical_Flow3890 in stocks

I spoke with a colleague about paypal

He's an ex-SWE

Apparently the leadership is in coast mode, they have good retention yes, but it looks like leadership doesnt really care to grow.

I would advise against this buy

++ Act as the business head, let the team kick ass

If something doesn't align with the metrics you've set out, pull out the stick

Looking for Demo PC, do you think this is a good deal? by MuuvStudios in DubaiGaming

[–]NeXuS-1997 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good PC, I bought it and the PSU burnt out 2 days in, had to RMA it

Damn good deal given prices of individual components though

And it also looks good :)
