Pros: It’s a good place to have good networking. No Japanese language skill is required. Comparing to other Japanese companies, here you’d get lots of freedom to do whatever you want, bringing your laptop to work from a cafe or free space, initiating a new project, and getting funding from the CEO, etc. Of course, it depends on the team’s managers. It’d be more strict, micromanaged, and Japanized if you’re in a Japanese-managed team. Free food, cheaper coffee, bread, gym, salon, massage, nail salon, cleaning.

Cons: It depends on the team, as I mentioned. The Japanese team will be Japanized. Asakai (early morning all-hands for the whole company) would be a bit painful, but the good thing is you can leave the office earlier. There are no official flex working hours. It’s difficult to be promoted and get a higher salary grade. Well, this depends on the managers as well.

Pros: Good Perk: Free breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

Cons: Uncleared evaluation goal. No feedback or reasons after evaluation.

Pros: No pros for job profile.

Cons: All cons regarding work-life balance.
