Doesn't Recommend
Pros
  • meals
  • scale
  • work-life balance
  • easy gateway to Japan
Cons
  • Managers push everything down, expecting perfection.
  • Managers don't guide, just expect. Once given a result, they're unsatisfied because it doesn't match their expectation, while they never made it clear.
  • I believe I have seen some minor power harassment incidents.
  • Strictly work, no casual talk, nothing. Terrible team bonding. Once, after WFH started, I had to be taken to the ER, and the manager just texted back, "Ok."
