A recent survey showed that many Korean workers hold negative views about the local office culture.
Job Korea, a Seoul-based job-hunting portal, said today that 48.7 percent of the 604 employees it surveyed said they considered the Korean corporate culture to be negative.
Out of the 48.7 percent, 36.6 percent said the culture is “exceedingly negative,” while another 12.4 percent said it was “generally negative.”
Of the respondents, 36.6 percent responded with “neither negative nor positive,” while less than 15 percent said the culture was “positive.”
As for the office culture of the firms the surveyed workers were directly employed at, 41.2 percent of the respondents said it was “fair.” Another 33.8 percent it was “negative,” while about one-fourth said it was “positive.”
