5.0
Pros
  1. Friendly and supportive team member
  2. Innovative working atmosphere
  3. Nice work environment with high-spec working machines (Mac), sit-to-stand desks, etc.
  4. Free lunch and dinner (starts at 7 pm).
Cons
  1. Japanese is heavily used among many teams. This might be a problem if you expect an international-style working environment.
  2. Better have low salary expectations if you are a regular employee.
  3. There is a high chance that you will be required to maintain a legacy codebase.
