Rakuten

• Free lunch/breakfast.
• Company is in a good location.
• Rakuten as a company is great. Good if you get to work in Japan center.
• Good work-life balance.

I could see a lot of fake reviews here. This is not a place for ambitious talents!

• The top management keeps changing and it's not strong enough to keep the reputation of Rakuten.
• Tech leads and Development managers are not technically sound.
• The managers and Technical leads are not ready to take responsibilities. They just dump on the heads of others and enjoy their life.
• Hell of internal politics. Good rapport with your manager is the key to success here.
• Lot of great talents have left the company due to this.
• No proper policies and they keep changing.
• Nobody responds to your concerns.

My advice is to the Japan Management to closely monitor the India center. This center is definitely spoiling the company's culture in the name of Rakuten.
