Vantaggi
Dynamic, fast paced environment Hugely successful company with a tremendous range of consumer products Good salary and benefits package, including excellent staff purchase scheme. Many very skilled people
Svantaggi
Very rigid Korean control of key decisions and processes, yet can be incredibly chaotic and disorganised at the coal face. Needs better local control and a wider range of input. Obsessive IT systems security and rigid approval processes are both obstructive to day to day activities. Tends to produce employees of extremes - either Samsung-worshipping workaholics who you expect to find dead at their desks one morning, or people who use the vast structure and ever-present disorganisation to actually do very little. Very few "normal" people who work hard, and deliver on commitments, but go home on time and don't live and breathe the job.
