Pros

- Amazing pay and quarterly bonus (managers & above) - Great health insurance - Good PTO policy - Great employee discount on products

Cons

- Can't use your amazing PTO because the company is so short-staffed, there is no one to cover for you - Work/life balance is non-existent (between the insane amount of work and calls at midnight with HQ, when are you supposed to sleep?) - Leadership just does whatever HQ (S. Korea) tells them to do, which changes daily - Impossible to be promoted

Pros

Great products. Everyone gets to travel at least once per year.

Cons

Low pay compared to top US electronics companies. Strong culture of favoritism — managers rarely promote on merit and frequently move the goalposts for employees outside their inner circle. Colleagues and managers regularly take credit for others' work. I personally witnessed and experienced what I believe to be gender and race-based inequities in how employees are treated and evaluated. HR was unresponsive when issues were raised.
