Pros

The people are great. Everyone works very hard, but are rarely rewarded or compensated accordingly.

Cons

The company has been struggling to make its mark in the west. It has seen numerous leaders (and I use the term loosely) who make empty promises of success that never come to fruition. The employees work tirelessly to keep afloat, the very mediocre, outdated anime titles and stress over rolling out newer titles of promise that eventually meet their ultimate demise due to the company's lack of knowledge of what it takes to launch a successful title in the west. Be extremely cautious if you are approached with an opportunity here. It's a revolving door and mostly likely you will be filling the seat of someone who probably quit because they were: 1) Overworked 2)Underpaid 3)Under-appreciated 4) Under - challenged 5) All of the above If you do decide to take the plunge, just be ready for the empty promises and dreams deferred.

Don’t know when and how to invest

Pros

Close to the freeways, half days before a three day weekend, end of year studio shutdowns, basketball court, nice gym

Cons

The current GM does not know when to invest resources into a project. He either starves a project until it is too late, or wastes money on a project that should have been killed a long while ago. Nexon’s bet on Lawbreakers failed, and their upcoming games are being starved as a punishment. He has a very bad track record with Marketing and often uses them as a scapegoat of his own misgivings.
