Typical korean bank

Loan officer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

You don't need to work extra. Work is easy and does not require much thinking.

Cons

This is a typical korean bank filled with 1st or 1.5 generation immigrants who could not make it elsewhere. Management lacks vision and give out VP or FVP positions to any body with tenure regardless of skill or knowledge. Go join major banks. This is for people with little or no vision. Approximately 60% - 70% less pay than major banks for the same position with same years of experience.

Lack of training and pay.

Pros

-Laid back working environment.. Though I've heard differently from other colleagues, so I guess it depends on your department. -Great for entry-level job seekers with interest in banking -Benefits and holidays

Cons

-No training whatsoever, leaving fellow under-experienced co-workers to "train" new employees. -Underpaid. Depending on the position, you might be better off working part time as a server at a restaurant. -Traditional Korean. If you're not familiar with titles and hierarchy in the Korean business world, you better get familiar with it ASAP. -Seems like the upper management does not care about anyone below them.. which is probably true.

Pros

Will give, in my opinion, a very inflated salary for external experienced recruits.

Cons

Existing employees are routinely taken advantage of and passed over for promotions. Salary increases are minimum merit increases.
