Pros

High energy environment Ample opportunities for networking with peers in many different domains Good community outreach

Cons

You'll want to stay all day! If your idea doesn't fit with the needs of the group, even a good idea might have trouble.

Pros

Great People (but to be honest, when you're in a really terrible situation with a group of people, you all become friends and cry to each other). The office staff is very professional. They do outstanding events, and take care of the office extremely well. The Office location is the best you could have.

Cons

The worst management you could hope for. VPs and CEO are all clueless. VERY hard to have a clear career path unless politics is your thing and you're willing to become best friends with higher ups. Unorganized teams led by inexperienced middle managers that used to be incompetent developers, and got promoted because of the Dilbert principle. Most of your day will be wasted on an hour long meetings and documentation for 10 lines of code. You are lied with empty promises and lured with grand ideas, but at some point you will start to wonder if it all is just an elaborate scheme to siphon money out of Samsung's pocket by the higher ups.

Pros

No real pressure at work, direct managers are cool (as they are also only cogs) Good work-life balance Unlimited budget for playing with software (and then throw this software to the bin)

Cons

Slow process and god-like senior management low compensation compare to other "big" companies (and promotions are non-existent) Dont trust the SNEXT mantra: the pros of startup and the pros of a big corporation. its the other way around.
