"Not everyone is equal in Huawei’s tight hierarchy. Co entity has 2 floors & employees w/o Chinese roots can occupy only lower floor-no matter where they are on official org chart. Top level is reserved for expats, Chinese who are sent from HQ in Shenzhen." https://netzpolitik.org/2021/wolf-culture-how-huawei-controls-its-employees-in-europe/

"One ex-employee says there is effectively a glass ceiling for European workers. 'When you walk through the corridors, it is very obvious that 99.9 per cent of the management is Chinese.' That is probably an exaggeration, but it has a core of truth."

"What is clear is that, acc to our investigation, different rules presumably apply at Huawei for non-Chinese.They hv less access to info & are excluded from important internal decsns, our sources report. At mtgs, managemnt personnel sometimes switch to Chinese at crucial moments"

#CAI:EU-China investment deal allows for more Chinese employees to come to Europe for up to 3 yrs. But which laws will be followed by Chinese companies in Europe? This ex. from Huawei doesn't seem to fit any form of European law.
