Off course YMMV. But that's not the rule in general.

I have recent experience with Korea which is overall quite efficient in fact, and yet it's still a struggle to figure out what I need to do, how to do it, and language barriers don't help.

Swiss bureaucracy is expensive but it’s swift, easy, and very cordial. I’ve never lived anywhere that was so good on paperwork. Exchange my non EEU drivers license? A week flat and about 100.-. Getting a residence permit? 100.- approx and less than two weeks. Questions about your tax return or filing? An email to the cantonal tax office and you’ll get an (encrypted answer) within a few days.

That’s only about the government though, private companies are hilariously terrible at customer service or paperwork especially compared to US/Canada.

Seconded. I moved from Sweden to Switzerland (Aargau) and I was in awe of how little nonsense there’s been.
