Pros

Since Samsung was my first employment, I have waited an entire year so I could write a fair review. In waiting, it has occurred to me that I do miss a few things about Samsung. I miss the company Family Fun Day at Six Flags. I miss the Holiday Gala and company holiday gift. I miss the companies miss use of company funds on pointless department lunches and dinners. I miss talking to other employees about the racism and sexism that goes on throughout the office. The benefits and pay were nothing better than fair.

Cons

While working at Samsung, I was continuously put down, over worked, and never respected. Management has little respect for its employees and often ignores there advice. Management respects you more if you are Korean. For example, we once had a meeting on an important issue. After going through all the issues and coming to a solution that everyone agreed to, I discovered that the solution was not what was implemented. Apparently, a separate meeting took place that only consisted of the Korean members of the meeting and they came to there own solution. The meeting that I had been told to coordinate was only performed to make the non-Korean employees feel that they were part of the solution. After working at Samsung for 4 years, working 60-80 hour weeks including one 35 continuous hour experience, I have learned that Samsung will never respect the hard work and dedication that one has provided to the company and the department.

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).
