Pros

orking at the forefront of the EV battery industry provides invaluable technical experience. The scale of the operations and the complexity of the processes are impressive. You get to work with cutting-edge machinery and world-class engineers.

Cons

The work-life balance can be difficult during production ramp-ups. The corporate culture is quite hierarchical, reflecting a traditional Korean management style, which can lead to slow decision-making and high pressure from upper management.
