Not bad if you have no life

Quality assurance lead

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Friendly people, catered lunches every now and again, stable work if you're committed for it. They'll let you grow as well... to a point.

Cons

VERY big on nepotism. If you're not part of "The Family" you're not going to get past associate producer. Nexon Korea controls everything, Nexon America just puts out the fires.

Business Outlook

Pros

Coffee machine, decent parking and free food from time to time.

Cons

Management that doesn't care to listen or learn. Korean mindset that doesn't work as well in the west. Promote 1-2 westerners to make it seem like they are evolving, but keep replacing the same 7-8 korean robot manager clones again and again... so nothing changes.
