Pros

- Stable job - a lot of opportunity to growth - global coverage of colleagues

Cons

- take a lot of time to go 1-level up, mainly because seniority is privileged here - a bit militaristic management style - salary is not that great

Pros

- The company employ excellent talent, however do not then value the ideas and opinion of those individuals once it is within the organisation. - Samsung is a great name to have on your CV and will open a lot of doors to other organisations

Cons

- There are several incidents of racism, ageism and sexism that occur by the senior management team and there is nobody at a senior level that is willing to challenge those ideas and behaviours. Cultural differences aside, you can't operate in that way within a European environment and it very much compromises your morals and the way in which you are comfortable working. - The company will burn you out and then discard you. There is no loyalty to the "Westerners" they "buy in" to the organisation and the significant efforts they make to the organisation. - Within the European HQ, generally bullying is the management style of choice - Long working hours are expected and are the norm, no appreciation of going over and above will occur and there will be no celebration of successes before having to move rapidly onto the next task.
