Pros

- Amazing benefits that are better than most media/entertainment companies - Other employees who know the struggles and hardships of the company and will commiserate with you -Don't have to try that hard because the people who are supposed to lead don't know anything about their actual job so they can't expect much from you - Had a nice office, but far

Cons

- The company follows the standards of a Korean company based in Korea rather than a Korean company based in the US - Everything is based on what HQ wants and even if it's not the best option as a whole due to cultural standards, etc, HQ always gets their way - You mostly feel like a puppet doing the bidding of Korea... and you see that even the executives are puppets who aren't able to actually do what they want either - HIGH turnover. In the short time I was there, I saw the whole legal team leave, marketing team collapse, the whole esports division close - No innovation. Same thing year after year and no growth. - Most of the employees there hate working there and spend more time on linkedin during work than working... creates a depressing atmosphere - HR isn't helpful. They aren't there to protect the employee at all, they are there to protect Korea - Low salary... if you get a bonus, if any at all, it's pretty low - hard to get promoted - People constantly lie to their clients and vendors. Most of the info handed out is false and hide information from one another - teams don't work with one another - You spend a lot of time being asked to come up with ideas, but nobody does anything with it - Management doesn't listen to junior employees or take their words into consideration - Executives keep employees who should be fired - The only people left at the company are the incompetent employees and CJ is as good as it gets. The few employees who are talented, smart, passionate people are probably applying to several jobs and are most likely experiencing various levels of depression from still being a part of CJ - and eventually they will leave and will be replaced with either incompetent people or capable people who will also get jaded and depressed
