Pros

Pretty good perks People are all really nice and hardworking Get to do a lot, really opens up your experience/resume if you are ready Progression is pretty fair, I saw deserving people get promoted

Cons

Not speaking for everyone, only myself: I believe I had mental health issues while/from working here. I neglected personal relationships and myself in order to complete the workload I was given. I don't regret taking the job necessarily because it was a great experience in terms of what I was able to accomplish, I feel proud of the work I did here and I was able to confidently take away new skills to my next job, but it was absolutely to the detriment of my well-being. I think The Great Resignation is centered around companies like this. You realize how unimportant the work is once you take a step back. I don't regret joining, but I'm glad I left. I don't actually believe this is an experience every single Nexon employee has - some have been here for a long time - and I think it depends on your department and your manager. Ask a lot of questions in your interviews so you can really understand if your department is right for you. Also two more things: 1) none of your ideas will matter unless you can convince the Korean office to okay it; you are viewed as another cog in the machine. 2) Lots of processes are essentially busy work, not that you don't already have a lot of actual work to do

Pros

Nice coworkers and vibrant office environment. Cool working for a company that I play their games

Cons

Absolutely terrible leadership and management. Understaffed, overworked, projects mismanaged then staff gets blamed for their inconsistencies and mistakes when we had minimal say in the planning and implementation process.
