Pros

The product are exceptional and best innovation

Cons

While the products are exceptional, the organization and management is the total opposite. Your thoughts and opinions are not welcome, you need but to reply Yes/No and obey. Its management by fear. Communication with management is none existent. Bonus are rarely paid nor those the company even explain the bonus scheme nor achievements. With the rotating Korean management every 4 years there is no long term strategy for the region and a continuous loss of regional knowledge build. Its reputation is so bad it hard to hire new talents.

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.
