Pros

Products, brand, innovation, salary, product benefits, freedom to achieve absolutely anything if you set your mind to it.

Cons

The company scale and korean ownership brings excessive process and reporting requirements. Fantastic talent outweighed by a selection of employees (from top top to bottom) who have an unrealistic sense of entitlement.

Pros

Good benefits (Health Insurance, PTO), decent pay Opportunity to do exciting work and partner with smart and passionate people Global brand recognition and large scale projects If you have a good manager, good flexibility and team sub-culture

Cons

If given the chance, this place will overrun your life HQ drives huge inefficiencies/unnecessary work, restrictive/slow HQ culture blocks many great ideas from moving forward Korean hierarchy above all - what HQ says goes - regardless of impact of those decisions US leadership is powerless, which also means your department head has very little to do with your job security and/or career advancement This is a decent enough short-term career opportunity. Get the experience and move on. Most of the people you meet will be gone in two years or less. If you have another offer, go there instead.
