Pros

Great coworkers, fantastic benefits (excellent insurance, with most of the premiums covered by the company, 401K match, excellent employee purchase program). You work with some of the coolest products on the market, and work with some of the biggest technology partners and resellers in the US.

Cons

Too many proprietary systems and processes, I do not feel like my experience here helped contribute to my career prospects in more modern companies. You are constantly working within a Korean mindset, with ridiculous goals often established without any regard to actual market conditions, and can change at the drop of a hat when a new executive decides he wants to try something different.

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.
