Pros

As an expat hire, Samsung pays well, the benefits are good, and in general the work-life balance is not bad (although this varies significantly between teams). Can be a fascinating experience to see how the company operates.

Cons

Samsung resembles much more a military organization than a corporate entity. Communication flows top - down, anyone under VP or even SVP has little decision making authority, middle management is not paid to think but to execute orders, and promotions are based on a persons age and political connections, not necessarily competence.
