Pros

Pay is decent but that's it.

Cons

The below comments are not only my general feedback but that of over 50 people I've talked to within the Samsung Plano office. A majority of people feel this way: You feel it the second you walk into this workplace, nothing but weighed down people. Mistreated by leaders who expect you to perform at a high level or you will be reprimanded. Leadership and management rarely offer any guidance, coaching, or time. The pay is decent but that is LITERALLY the only positive here. Very little room for promotions and a majority of workers are contractors that get mistreated constantly. Recent layoff sremoved 30% of US staff and no one even had the opportunity to say goodbye, just abruptly layed off and never heard of again... Samsung DOES NOT care or value it's employees. The company's core values are a hypocrisy and not followed by Leadership, Management, HR, or Headquarters. Its like these values are used to hold the entry/mid level employees accountable but no one else. AVOID this company at all costs, not worth the pay. Average employee lifespan here is 1.5 years, this makes sense given all the above.

Pros

Met very smart, talented colleagues - enjoyed working with some of the people on the team, and learned many applicable, valuable technical skills. Some projects provide opportunities to learn new skills and can launch interesting products. The food is good.

Cons

All the previous reviews about the culture are 100% accurate. Overall very poor management and direction from the upper level, which trickles down into the team. Office politics and conflicting direction from HQ, too many meetings just to prove the work is being done, resulting in little to no trust in the US team - constant surveillance, questioning, and general misalignment of objectives. Company culture and team morale is overall quite low, and little recognition and appreciation from management for hardworking teams on the working levels. Also, it doesn’t seem like there is much room to grow, just more work added with little promotional opportunities. ALSO: RTO 5 days in office was unreasonable, had no justification, with no productivity data to show reasoning - seemed to be a rash decision from the HQ side as a form of control and to push people into soft layoffs (Their "Q&A" sessions are just beating around the bush about this specific reasoning).
