Pros

Money. Follow Korean mentality and stop thinking.

Cons

Not a good place to work overall. People, from entry jobs to Head are used and thrown away depending on Korea HQ mood. Impossible to develop projects or ideas.

Pros

Nothing major. Decent food. Benefits getting worse. HR is helpful, but Finance is a mess -- corrupt, unehtical, lazy, and completely useless.

Cons

Too much instability, lack of vision from the top such as the idiot President YJ Kim, lack of understanding of research, hardware based approach to software, lazy corrupt and unethical Korean culture approach.

Pros

Good People Nice Building, Apart from that there is nothing else to say

Cons

Will never be appreciated this is a Korean company and unless your are a Korean you will be no one just a worthless number used for your local language skills nothing else. Koreans will ask lots of questions and explanations but will never share their thoughts and ideas with you. Even though you spent 15 minutes explaining something they don`t understand. They don`t respect our European culture its either their way or the highway. But we still have to do various Korean Culture Courses to understand theirs. They always give you the impression that you are never trusted in their company. Stay way clear if you want to grow within a company you will never move here unless you are laid off.. You are simply there to say yes sir and do as you told. Your family and friends will think you made it but in reality they don`t know that over time you will be afraid over your own shadow. Being a long time in a culture as this will do long term damage and break your confidence. Is that really success ?
