Pros

Good Salary, Strong brand name and recognition, you get to learn the perfection of presentations excel skills and "some" experience overall.

Cons

Really hard and annoying to work with Koreans Style management, there is always a miscommunication reason behind them not understanding you, your thoughts are for yourself and their thoughts and decisions are un-negotiable. Work life balance is very poor, you end up being a secertary even if you have the experience and knowledge to run a full business. Strategies are changed over night, and they expect you to have no personal life the same way thry don't. Friendships are made among other fellow locals only, koreans barely return a good morning or a salute.

Pros

Great products. Everyone gets to travel at least once per year.

Cons

Low pay compared to top US electronics companies. Strong culture of favoritism — managers rarely promote on merit and frequently move the goalposts for employees outside their inner circle. Colleagues and managers regularly take credit for others' work. I personally witnessed and experienced what I believe to be gender and race-based inequities in how employees are treated and evaluated. HR was unresponsive when issues were raised.
