Good prospect for Japanese speakers

Buyer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Generally friendly employees. Females do not get discriminated. Performance-based bonus so if your ability is recognized you will be rewarded.

Cons

Rather traditional Japanese culture where Japanese speakers get more opportunities to shine at work, making it difficult to retain talents of those who don't speak the language. Pay is comparatively low in the industry.

Great company, but very challenging cross-cultural business environment.....

Product specialist

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Fantastic company with cutting edge products in countless business segments all over the world! Good pay with great benefits. You will learn a lot about doing business internationally, and meet many smart, kind, and warmhearted people in the process.

Cons

The Japanese business culture is diametrically opposed to what most Americans are accustomed to and it can be a very difficult and stressful environment for those unfamiliar with how the Japanese business world operates. There are plenty of books on this topic along with lots of information on the Internet. I highly recommend researching the cultural differences between your home country and Japan. The hours can be long and work/life balance can be difficult to achieve depending on the team you're working with.
