Samsung

Great work-life balance.

Friendly and easygoing atmosphere.

Lots of company social events.

Projects are often fun and open.

Senior management from within Vancouver is very pleasant to work with.

Difficult to access by public transit. Parking is often full.

"Sponsored" cafeteria onsite is expensive and terrible quality. Very few restaurants within walking distance.

Projects are often strongly controlled by Samsung Korea or Samsung US. Senior management from outside Vancouver are controlling and difficult to work with (though Vancouver management does a great job in protecting the employees and projects).

I hear many employees are being snatched up by another company, causing incredibly low morale.

Provide stronger direction and build better loyalty. Compensate at a much more competitive rate. Get more involved in the local universities; communicate more often to students. MOVE TO A BETTER LOCATION.
