        Pros

        I love the fact that I was able to be surrounded by passionate and enthusiastic people. I learned so much from work and also from my colleagues. If you'd like to work with people from different countries such as Korea, Japan, Taiwan, you may consider a job here!

        Cons

        You probably don't want to start work here if it's your first job. It's such a fast-paced working environment. Everyone is quite busy with their projects. Some people may find it difficult to adjust at first. However, if you are up to challenges, please go for it!

          Pros

          I've enjoyed working with exceptionally talented and highly devoted colleagues. If you are passionate about technologies and global business opportunities, LINE is one of the best options in Korea. Especially you are in early stage of your professional carreer, you can learn a lot from your colleagues.

          Cons

          Only a limited number of C levels make most of decisions and no sense of delegation at all. C levels have escalated to the top of the corporate ladder just because they joined the company earlier than others not because they have more expertise. Many seasoned managers have left the company because they couldn't find any growth opportunities at LINE.

                      Applying for 2 internal promotion positions within the same company each in a different state in the US. Should you mention this while in the interview stages of both positions?

                      Was told by an company I was interviewing with I would hear back from them the first week of December. The last time we spoke was before Thanksgiving, as I'm trying to respect their decision-making process. Should I reach out again now that we're closer to the date?

                      EY

                      When negotiating salary over the phone, can you mention that you know what the salary is for the position you're applying for? E.g. I know people at the company I'm interviewing for in the exact level that I would be in who are making about 15k more than what I am expecting to be offered. Can I say, "I know Managers at this firm make xyz so I would like to be close to that number"
