Pros

If you are a sales person in this company you basically own your schedule, there´s a lot of freedom regarding the way you harvest your territory. You have an always growing path, You compete against all the other employees for better salaries and better job position.

Cons

The hours are very consuming, a typical day can easily be 14 hours working. Its a Japanese company so you can expect a very low tolerance towards discipline and punctuality in every aspect of your work life. The company is based on sales so mostly if you get your sales goals is easier to get your way. If you do exactly what they ask for regarding process but you don't achieve your results there are consequences.
