Pros

The employees are hard working and intelligent. The benefits including, vacation, 401k and health care are really great. You end up learning a lot about the various operating companies and different functions at the company. The work/life balance is fair.

Cons

There is no room for growth. You get minimal yearly raises, but the Company is currently doing so badly that no one is being promoting. Our department is a revolving door and you end up taking on multiple job functions when people leave. The employee morale is basically non-existent.

Pros

Good package & benefits Good insight of a large, multi-national company Nice insight of a high-tech, industry leading company Good tolerance training - you'll learn to have a LOT of patience Lot of travel - if your position allows

Cons

Creativity is not really needed if you're outside Japan - if you want to get involved in designing things, the best place you can start would be Japan Large & relatively old company = a lot of historical agreements, processes = a lot of time and energy spent on inefficiencies Not really innovative atmosphere
