A quarter century of Culture's Consequences: a review of empirical research incorporating Hofstede's cultural values framework (2006, methodology): “For example, at the individual level, COL was positively related to job satisfaction (Kirkman and Shapiro, 2001a), but at the country level the opposite was true (Spector et al., 2001b).”
What you do depends on where you are: understanding how domestic and expatriate work requirements depend upon the cultural context (2007, background): “Notwithstanding the strengths noted earlier, legitimate concerns have been raised about these measures, including a lack of exhaustiveness, adequacy of the sample of nations, generalizability, possible historical changes, and some validity problems (Schwartz, 1994; Spector et al., 2001).”
