Pros

None!!!!!! Horrible place to work. Depressing and frustrating. Feel bad for some of the decent people who are still stuck there. Completely disassociated with how a business should be run. Management is so out of touch with how to do things and they're lack of knowledge for the departments they run is mind boggling! Like said no pros what so ever!

Cons

Everything! Especially the management and work environment. If your not Korean management your nothing. Employees are subjected to discrimination on a regular basis and the favoritism shown to Korean employees is obvious. No knowledge of how to solve problems in an appropriate manner just pass the buck along. Management never takes responsibility for anything and when problems arise the lower level employees get blamed.

Pros

- Decent Salary - Very good benefits - A lot of potential to learn in a busy environment about the industry - Many good ideas (that aren't realised due to the unecessary need to get things done quickly)

Cons

- The Koreans have no trust in any westerners. Countless times I have witnessed arguments where I feel the Westerners are being treated unfairly - There's always a rush to do everything which, at times, hinders the business - Too many decisions are forced onto the subsidiary by the Korean HQ. Too many pointless back and forth changes - Poor internal IT structure and in house software. Very difficult to use. - Too much "respect" given to Korean VPS and none to Western VPs
