      Great Pay and Benefits, But Career Progression and Work-Life Balance Suffer

      Senior product marketing manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Pay visibly higher than industry average - Benefits: Car allowance, car scheme, bonus, pension and so on - Good food in cafeteria - Beautiful office and surroundings, not being in central London - To have the opportunity to work in big projects

      Cons

      - Work/life balance not good - Korean culture has become very dominant in the company, non-Korean colleagues have limited to none influence and decision making - Very political when you climb higher up, many things are decided by the CEO and comes top-down - Lot of reporting instead of doing the actual job - When you are not very Junior, zero career-path and improvement opportunity, no trainings

      Outdated company

      Senior software engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Benefits are great. You get huge bonuses on leave encashments and performance ratings.

      Cons

      - Outdated performance review process. Grading system is absurd. - Outdated software development lifecycle. We can’t modernise with an efficient scrum methodology as our Korean bosses use waterfall. - Outdated culture where people will have to address their seniors with Mr. and Ms. - Outdated tools. Some work tools are only accessible via Internet Explorer, and the UIs are reminiscent of early 20’s UI. - Poor-performing laptops are provided to employees. - Aside from your actual job in the company, you are also expected to contribute to other internal projects, and to pass algorithm exams. If you’re not performing at these 2, it will be taken against you in your performance review.

      Don’t consider coming in if you want progression or no overtime

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - people there are generally quite nice - brand definitely. It’s Samsung that you’re putting in your resume.

      Cons

      -a lot of overtime (till1 plus am) -no progression after 4 years -cutting down headcounts so probably you will be taking over 3-4 pax work -limited free snacks ( like those biscuit u buy from the tins). Chips and drinks are payable. So if you imagine that our company has those free snacks around, think again.
