Pros

Being Vietnamese, Vinfast was the best option in term of salary for me. Vietnam's auto industry is next to zero so I didn't have many options.

Cons

- Crazy deadlines! They wanted to build cars from scratch in 2 years??? Impossible. - Product selling points heavily depend on nationalism and pride. - Employees have to buy company's products like phones, bikes and cars or 30% of your salary is gone. - It gets very political down to bottom level employees - Saturday and sometimes Sunday work hours. In my case every Saturday and twice a month on Sunday. - They have a system where there are two or more divisions working on the same assignment. Who ever excel first will get to stick around for a little longer. This system which they said to increase productivity but it ended up costing them money and people.

Pros

People I worked with in the Irvine office were great, friendly, and hard working.

Cons

Had to run everything by Vietnam team which made things less efficient. Had a lot of differing opinions to Vietnam team with how they operate and want to do things.
