Pros

As a massive manufacturing company, you will have a great exposure to other vendors (of course, it depends on your department and role). Friendly and supportive colleagues.

Cons

Limited opportunity for growth because it's not fully globalised yet (Most of communication with Korean HQ is done by Korean) - somewhat understandable given the fact that all board member back in HQ are purely Koreans. Top managers are occupied by the expats from Korea, which sometimes limit the localisation and growth.

Pros

LG used to be my dream job. 5 years ago, Every good part of LG ended. They preach all day about wellness, work life balance, and investing in their employees. And they used to do just that but not any more. Their 100% paid insurance is literally the only perk and its a trap.

Cons

They take motivated and competent individuals and shackle them with the workload of 5 or 6 people while telling them they aren't good enough, not doing enough, even though they are somehow finding a way to juggle all of the immense workload. PTO is a joke and no one respects it, they will call and ask you to work on your PTO, on weekends and at 10pm. They have no shame. The compensation is entirely below the bar even with 100% paid insurance. Promotions & Raises? Those only go to Koreans. Its gone so far down hill in the last 5 years. The culture in that office is so toxic but the job market is so restricted that you can't leave.
