Pros

Pays above market, bonus arrangements, signing bonuses, travel.

Cons

Passive aggressive much? Their US office is full of people who can't work any where else and are just happy with high pay so they keep their mouth shut about everything else. The Korean in house team is horribly unhappy/frustrated and it shows in every interaction. No real work is done. Endless meetings about nothing. Hierarchal and nonsensical, the simplest goals are made impossible to achieve by ever changing metrics and a lack of real leadership. It's a nightmare, keep looking.

Pros

I love people and over all compensation is great.

Cons

HQ has too much governance over the regional office, which creates too much redundant work.

Pros

You get to do a dream job that many people wish for. Additionally, it takes people many hours to even get to point to play esports professionally and at that make a livable wage. its a blessing to experience it especially if you enjoy the game.

Cons

Managers are incompetent. For such a high pressure job for young adults there was terrible mentorship, basically none available. Also zero effort into helping make their players better. its basically you perform until you can't and then u get fired. (which is fair) The works do what's best for business and not the players, even sometimes do what's best for their own agenda.
