According to businesskorea, the Korean media, Chinese smartphone manufacturers are attracting outstanding Korean smartphone engineers with more than four times the high salary. Some analysts believe that as South Korea is losing ground in the smart phone market, Chinese enterprises have begun to contact South Korean engineers, and relevant enterprises are recruiting engineers from Samsung Electronics and LG Electronics through headhunters.
Access:
It is reported that Samsung Electronics' smartphone workforce has shrunk for three consecutive years, 27649 in 2019, 27094 in 2020 and 26426 in 2021. It is reported that many of those who left Samsung Electronics have switched to Chinese smartphone companies.
In addition, LG Electronics announced the launch of smart phone business in 2021. The company's smart phone engineers are currently working in other business departments, but they are smart phone experts with the latest technology, so they are regarded as recruitment targets by Chinese smart phone manufacturers.
