      Pros

      The only good thing at Samsung was the pay which was ok.

      Cons

      Pros

      - Has high reputation among common Koreans (meaning any people outside the industry) - High Compensation (around 45K as beginning salary)

      Cons

      Samsung C&T and any other Korean trading company is a copy from Japan's Shogo Shosha. Originally C&T's role was to import/export all of Samsung products. With this, the company served as the brain of the entire conglomerate. However, after the Asian Financial Crisis in 1997, Lee Gun Hee decided to allow all Samsung companies to conduct import/export on their own. C&T lost its main role, and most of the essential employees left the firm, which exactly explains the company's decline since. Now the company is a commodity trader with less than 1% of net profit rate. I worked on complex Excel sheets to predict the company's profit for 2020 August and, believe it or not, without backing this up with ANY strategy. The company is 75 years old and has some serious mis-guided culture.

      Senior management show favouritism and do not nurture all employees equally

      Pros

      Looks good on the CV

      Cons

      Work experience is average since seniors are not too talented. Work process is not shared properly so you make mistakes and get blamed for them too. Talking to each other is discouraged. Seniors are red tape oriented and point out faults. Encouragement is rare and positive words are to be taken with a pinch of salt. Beware of spies who snitch.
