I've worked in China on and off for the last few years, with sub-contractors and our own factory over there. Their main problem is that they're over-enthusiastic.
They'll ignore every written procedure that they have and just get on with it, not always with the best results. Also, there's a lot of un-skilled labour, so instead
of using a technical solution with one man, they'll throw ten at it.
One other issue is wages and staff retention. They will travel thousands of miles to work, so expect to work twelve hours a day, seven days a week and send their
money home. If where they're working can't provide this, they'll just go somewhere else, so the staff turnover is horrendous.
You can get good items from there, but you need to be careful. Have a look at most of the items around you and you might be surprised.
