Pros

Great Benefits Chance to work with some top quality people in their field

Cons

Joined Samsung C&T, Americas at the start. Sounded like a great opportunity. Turned out to be a dead end real soon. 1. Wrong US management for a start-up. Lot of conflicting priorities. 2. Korean Management even worse. They have no understanding of western business practices, no expertise in the construction field and are very arrogant. Did nothing to help foster corporation between Korea and the US. 3. If you are not Korean your career is dead. Funny US managers were let go, Koreans got sent back home (Real Double standard) 4. M.O. seems to be to hire westerners to lay the ground work, then replace with Korean staff. 5. Hired a lot of really good people, than did an amateurish job of laying them off. Worse had no plan for the people still employed. 6. New GM is in the office part time. Office needs a full time talented leader to turn it around. 7. Korean staff has very little respect for US staff and US staff has little if any respect for Korean staff

Pros

People with industry experience can be hired on very quickly.

Cons

Experienced workers can be hired on quickly and then sit on their butt and do the minimums until someone in upper management finds out and then just moves you to a different department.
