> frankly agressive way you denied ever having a problem with admiting mistakes...

Respectfully, that is a straw man. I never made that claim.

I am saying that GGP's claim is unsupported and therefore baseless. Knowing myself exactly how things really work there, I read it as ignorant hyperbole.

To answer your questions, are there problems in Samsung? Samsung has the same problems with communication and admitting mistakes as other companies for whom I've worked of similar size. I've actually seen much worse at small companies, i.e. startups.

I personally never had issues at Samsung. I could directly communicate with anyone in the company and did so, often. When necessary, we coordinated work ahead of time, even after hours. It wasn't a problem.

I don't want to make it sound like working at Samsung was a walk in the park, because it wasn't. Samsung was by far the hardest job I've ever had. But working there taught me that with the right team and good teamwork, you can accomplish anything. We did some amazing things there.

It's an outright lie that disseminates. I bet you parent has never set foot in Samsung or has even interviewed for them. I bet you that they haven't even read past the headline seeing they are unable to actually cite the actual content or work experience at Samsung. How does someone on HN know more about Samsung from an article than somebody who has worked there?
