Mad Engine, a subsidiary of Wemade Max, has been named one of the '2025 Best Companies for Jobs in South Korea' by the Ministry of Employment and Labor. It is a significant achievement for a company only five years into its lifespan, marking recognition for building a solid human resources development framework and a foundation for sustainable growth.

The 'Best Companies for Jobs' initiative is designed to applaud firms that lead in job creation and human resource development, specifically focusing on expanding employment and fostering a healthy work-life balance. To spread these best practices, the ministry selects and certifies 100 companies annually.

Mad Engine earned this year's title by demonstrating commitment across several fronts: expanding opportunities for vulnerable job seekers, maintaining a fair, merit-based hiring process, implementing flexible working hours, ensuring equitable compensation, and fostering a safe office environment. Over half of the total workforce consists of young professionals. Furthermore, by collaborating with the Korea Employment Agency for the Disabled to design and operate a custom training-to-employment program, Mad Engine successfully brought five testers on board. Building on these results, Mad Engine plans to continue expanding recruitment across various departments.

Mad Engine CEO Lee Jung-wook stated, "Beyond just financial performance and game development prowess, investing in our people and building a sustainable employment ecosystem are vital pillars of our mission." Lee added, "We will continue to foster a working environment where talent can pursue their dreams, and we will strive company-wide to exert a positive influence on the gaming industry at large."

Meanwhile, Mad Engine was also selected as a partner for the 'Work-Life Balance' campaign managed by the Ministry of Employment and Labor this past July. Having already introduced work-from-home and flexible working hour systems, the company announced its intention to further expand these programs in the future.
