Pros

1) More short term onsite opportunities when compared to other companies ( but also depends on individual teams ) 2) Job Safety

Cons

1) Worst possible workplace and more like a school environment ( need to come to office at 8am ) 2) Huge amount of workload 3) Spineless managers ( A will say that his manger B wont accept, B will say C wont accept and C says D wont accept this ) 4) No direction of why we are doing some work and what we are doing it sometimes 5) No appreciation for good work 6) Just Seeing code for 12 hours a day is enough to survive here 7) The work we do is assessed by number of lines in our status report

Pros

Big company with a great brand in the market as far as end users are concerned. Most big company benefits, like salary and benefits

Cons

Very poor management, almost completely dominated by Koreans. If you are not Korean, it is almost impossible to get anywhere in the company.

Pros

Safe job, won't layoff during downtimes Some of the projects are quite interesting to work on People can get exposure to a lot of different technologies in the embedded domain

Cons

No technical leaders with lots of experience in any domain Recently removed flexi-timings while Samsung HQ in Korea switched to flexi-timing Depending on the skill level pay may not be too good No clarity on growth or what you might be doing 6 months down the line
