Why Samsung? There are many better companies out there in Bay area. If you get an offer only from Samsung with ML phd from Top 20 school, then something is not right.

Then just ignore or do it as practice. Seriously.

Run away from Samsung. Korean management has zero empathy and respect for engineers.
