Webzen reviews

- The Dublin office is not doing well. Revenue has been decreasing for years as shown in the public figures posted be Webzen. Last year alone revenue went down 48% - There is no team spirit or enjoyment in the work left, most people left loathe their work and are planning to leave. - All games are outdated. Even the new additions are years old and have failed in Korea before. Some of the titles are close to or over 10 years old. - Management has clear favorites that get involved in choice projects. - Benefits are near minimal. There is health insurance and the company takes part in a few government sponsored initiatives like cycle to work. - No sick pay. If you get sick you are not payed. You will loose out on pay until the government kicks in on the 7 days of your illness. - Micro management from your managers. Depending on your manager you might be check down to the minute. - Little to no career opportunities. Vacant management positions are frequently left open. Lower tier employees are expected to do the management work for free. - All big decisions are made by the Korean head office with little to no regard to the input from Dublin. - Salary is below industry average.

No direction at all. New titles/projects being discussed all the time, almost none ever take place. Current games are either outdated (some even older than 10 years) and only kept alive to generate revenue or are just being re-released versions of (failed) Korean titles. If you enjoy video games, avoid this company as (senior) management displays a complete lack of knowledge when it comes to handling/publishing games or people/teams. You do not count as a valued member of the company or a team, you are merely a low level employee where no efforts are taken to retain any talent you bring to the company. Approx. 75% of the staff have left the company in the last 2 years, while hardly any new employees were hired, with the trend going downward.
