LG Electronics reviews

Certain mid-level managers to director level people are just not leaders. They have no management quality and skills enough to lead their teams. Some are often venting their frustration and anger on their subordinates when they are the ones at fault for not organizing the work well for the teams. This is a top down problem which LG has to resolve soon before it's too late. Working sooo late and even burning your weekends doesn't mean the company can benefit more and make greater profit. This is efficiency. They should come out with more effective methods to improve efficiency in their work flow. Their business should build on what they are strong in rather than wasting time, resources and money on some products that they cannot compete well in the market. Their directors and senior management should not use what the situation in Korea as a benchmark for other countries. Yes LG is a Korean company but if it is to operate and sell to global markets, it should change to localize in each market overseas. Stop the mindset of working late means hardworking. This is nonsense. Forcing yourself to stay awake when you are exhausted is not going to make you hardworking but simply making yourself stupid. People should be treated with respects, regardless of nationality, position and gender.

Working for a Korean corporation is soul crushing. Korea is decades behind western design and silicon valley development practices and talent. Their top down seniority and male driven culture is possibly their biggest blocker.
