Pros

Large growing company. Access to large funds for marketing campaigns and rewarding feeling of being part of large world player.

Cons

Authoritarian korean style of management. You will routinely be spoken to with complete and utter disrespect and will never receive praise for a job well done. If you are in a role where you have to deal with clients you will have a hard time negotiating as subsidiaries are forced to follow strict targets from headquarters and there is no room for flexibility.

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.
