How is korea as a place to work?

The South offices are nice, but we haven't heard from the North offices in decades - wouldn't recommend.

Good culture, good people, you will have difficulty socialising with them(same as Japan), slight xenophobia in clubs etc., ball busting hard work and decent pay.

I wouldn’t choose it but that doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t

If you can surmount the language barrier, excellent experience.

I do not have a long stay work experience, but have done multiple 2 week work visits over the years. Culturally easier to assimilate for Indians than Japan / China, food isn't a challenge, Seoul is super safe.

Don't expect a lot of individual entrepreneurial innovation / zeal though. The chaebols own everything and can feel a bit bureaucratic.

Heard they are workaholics
