Business Outlook

Pros

Huge opportunities, strict ethics, very good salary and benefits. Focused on your strengths, very good top management. Looking to become a global player in the automobile industry so its full of great challenges.

Cons

Workaholic culture, very inflexible to adapt to local customs. Some people are extremely competitive and do not work as team. Work / Life balance almost doesn't exists, because of the Korean culture which is focused on results.
