Translation: unless you're management or have good connections there, we're going to outsource your job to somewhere where slave labor is the norm and quality doesn't exist - to keep costs low and please our investors. Zero long-term strategy and seat-of-your-pants quarterly huckster "leadership".

Lenovo literally has thousands and thousands of open job roles. It grows year on year at phenomonel pace. Incredible results.
