Hitachi reviews

Low salary increment and slow promotion

- Decent starting pay for officer, but not so well pay for manager level, at least I can say for myself. - Salary is not bench-marked to market by referencing to each individual job experiences, qualification, industry exposure, technical field and skills competency level etc. - Lack of opportunity for career progression & regional exposure for local staff. Promotion here is a joke. Peanut increment. - Lack of job transfer opportunity, as in transferring to other Hitachi companies. Maybe it's just this company only. - No formal performance appraisal, close culture, lack of open communication, creating room for bias, unfairness and waiting for problems to occur. - Can see few older managers are quite defensive towards their own rice bowl. - Office location is bad.
