Seongnam (South Korea)

Former Employee – worked at NHN full-time for more than 3 years

ProsYou can find good support, benetfit&compensation from HR. Since it is the best Internet and game portal in the country, you would find a lot of talented people to learn many things. Also, working in a large-scale IT environment will give you exceptional experience if you are an engineer.

ConsThe efficiency of human resource management is question.

Advice to Senior ManagementIs there enough education and opportunity for new comers and new graduates? Maybe it is not an obligation of the company but of employees themselves, but they would think other way if they can't find things they heard.

Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend – I'm optimistic about the outlook for this company
