Doesn't Approve of CEO
Pros

Free food.

Has massage parlour.

Cons

Terribly incompetent management; it has no idea what’s going on most of the time.

Why are we still using waterfall in this day and age?

Career progression is non-existent unless you are willing to grind it out for years, suck up to upper management, and be a yes man.

Advice to Management

This company can’t be saved as long as Mikitani is in charge. The financial reports also show this. No wonder this company can’t make a cent in profit to save its life.
