Seven in 10 South Korean workers have negative perceptions of their companies, a survey showed Wednesday.

Incruit, an online recruiting service, conducted the survey on 1,161 employees, asking whether they view their workplace as“good.” An overwhelming 849 respondents, or 73.1 percent, answered “no.” 

The survey also revealed that 35.9 percent of the respondents decided to work for their companies because “this was the only place where I got employed.” Another 28.6 percent answered, “It was a good career opportunity from which I could change jobs in the future.” 

More than half of those surveyed picked “good benefits” and “friendly working atmosphere” as the primary standards for a “good company,” while “high salary” came in third.
