Anyone have experience working for a life science company in a commercial strategy function in Asia? (e.g japan, korea, etc.) Assuming there was a solid expat package, are there any major watchouts or considerations?

I may be wrong, but I've mostly seen expat packages given when you are based in your home country and then your company moves you abroad for a few years.

If you're hired directly in that country, expat packages don't apply.

Once met a client who worked for a US company and did an expat assignment in his home country in Asia. Came back a few years later to head a BU. Not sure if that helps

Are you from Asia or familiar with the work culture in Asia? Just asking because the work culture there in general can be quite a shock to those who aren't too familiar

Asian american but familiar with the work culture. More curious about factors like whether finding a position in the US would be more difficult after working abroad, etc.
