Pros

Rakuten has a very supportive and inclusive company culture, with a strong emphasis on collaboration, respect, and work-life balance. The environment is diverse and open-minded, and there are plenty of career development opportunities, including internal mobility and international relocation across regions.

Cons

However, the company does face some challenges when it comes to innovation. The pace of product development is relatively slow, and the tech stack often lags behind industry standards. In a fast-changing digital and advertising landscape, Rakuten can be slower to adapt compared to more agile competitors.
