      Challenging and rewarding environment

      Pros

      The company has been growing rapidly, and there are many both technical and business challenges remaining. There's quite a lot of flexibility how you perform and which projects you work on, since the company is expanding its business horizon, both domestically and internationally.

      Cons

      Depending on departments, there's simply too much work for individual employees to work on, leading too much stress. The HQ is trying to push its culture to virtually every subsidiary, which I suspect some non-Japanese employees might find difficulties getting along with.
