Get Lost In The Crowd!
Get Lost In The Crowd!
Good benefits for a Japanese company (bonus 2x/year, stock, free cafeteria). Good work-life balance. Overtime discouraged.
- Some teams are not English-friendly, even though there is supposedly an "Englishnization" initiative.
- Not career growth-friendly. Prepare to be stuck in a role you don't like because your team is "too short-staffed."

Apply online and go to interview for four rounds. The interview process took two months, but they gave me an offer quickly after the last round interview. They focus more on why you applied to this company than on your personal skills.
