Pros: It's a good chance to learn something related to big companies. However, each product and system is created by different frameworks and languages, so your experience of development will be related to the exact department.

Cons: The boss's call will determine lots of things. Generally, focusing on the task you hold generally takes lots of spirit. The evaluation sometimes cannot be fair enough to reflect what you have done because your boss will decide it directly, although they tell you that is not true.

Pros: Meals 3 times a day, flexibility at work.

Cons: You are forced to sell Rakuten mobile contracts even though your job title is totally unrelated. If you don't sell, then you are threatened with receiving no bonus and resigning from the company. Managers and executives are unethical and keep asking you to sell contracts to your friends and family, even though the network quality is bad. You are hassled every day via emails, messages via Teams or Viber, and manager meetings to sell mobile contracts. A list of people who didn't sell any mobile contracts is sent out to a wide range of employees to shame you. Throughout the pandemic, Mikitani has been harassing unvaccinated people and called them irresponsible in company meetings. Rakuten represents woke/extreme liberal ideologies. Managers and executives are just yes-men who do whatever Mikitani says.

Pros: The company allows for innovation. You can try new tools and technologies.

Cons: Experience can change based on the team.
