Pros

If you like having to clear every little detail and love the administrative work associates with requiring approval by 10+ eternal teams, this is the place for you!

Cons

Pay is below market (base and bonus). Non-Japanese employees are treated like dirt. The "training" is the worst on the street as they group everyone together from IBD to Operations so the material is only applicable for 5% of the analyst class (instead of financial modeling and series test review it's 2 weeks of lease accounting and a half-day of excel). No mentorship, witnessed numerous cases blatant gender and racial discrimination, and high turnover.
