Pros
  1. Great work-from-home support during quarantine.

  2. Company culture is not bad compared to other Japanese companies.

  3. Clear career path and salary review system; you know what you are working for.

  4. Great benefits.

Cons
  1. Salary is low for fresh graduates. (I heard that the salary of mid-career jobs is not bad.)

Advice to Management

Treat your employees well. We are underpaid.
