Pros

Innovative brilliantly smart products fuel card

Cons

Alot of backstabbing and unprofessionalism Consumer company doesn't get Enterprise even though the products are enterprise ready the management aren't! very rich company but doesn't want to invest in supporting teams in enterprise to drive customer awareness Company places too much priority on internal meetings to discuss and plan which leaves us no time to speak to our external customers, then you get slammed for not selling enough! Korean company in Australia... Koreans are rude and arrogant to the Australian workers with visible eye rolling and shaking their heads at you or grunting when you walk past. work life balance is a joke - if you want to shorten your life by half come work here. average of 80 hours a week is normal. even then you still are behind due to the endless internal meetings. no career advancement unless you have a korean passport Other staff don't support you or respond to your requests as their either in another useless internal meeting or drowning in responding to missed work due to the infinite internal meetings. Enterprise business with weekly pipeline review meetings. Enterprise sales cycle is not the same as consumer. should be a monthly review for enterprise. again another time wasting meeting.

Pros

Initially the management made it sound like this newly formed Regional HQ for the C&T parent from Korea could really be a one in a life time opportunity but it never panned out. The office's geographical territory was supposed to be all of the Americas (North, Central and Latin America).

Cons

The scope of control of this office has been since reduced to the U.S. only except for Power and Healthcare projects. The Korean leadership distrusts the U.S. leadership hired to manage the office. This constant distrust and power struggle is tangible & even new employees with less than 2 months tenure are already begining to realize.
