Pros

You get to meet alot of young people, learn how to play office politics. If you stay in Qoo10 long enough, you would probably graduate with masters in office politics.

Cons

Korean culture, managements are korean. NO AWS NO BONUS NO COMMISSION (even if you are in sales). You will be told that there is commission after being hired, you will find out that the said commission is actually being paid in terms of Qcash. Direction change every week, KPI will be changed every few weeks. It doesn't matter how good you are, you are required to bring in good merchants (Branded merchants) but these merchants can keep you safe for 2 weeks? They are not going to confirm you at 3 months even if you do well. Unless you eat kimchi with your boss every night. Stay till 9pm and your dinner will be paid for (claimable) If you were to be fired, you cannot claim your taxi claims. Reason - Your name is no longer on the system ( even if you took cab for work) If your taxi claim reach $400, you will be required to write a report ( on why the f you work so hard, meet so much merchants) C levels are all koreans, Singaporean of the GM level will not protect you just because you are a local. They will play mind games with you, create office politics among different departments. Just so you think that you are attacking the other departments when you bring in big merchants, but who benefit in the end? THEM. Going IPO within a year or 2? they fire those long term staffs that use to help them grow the business, so that they can have a bigger cut of the pie.
