      Pros

      Fast moving and dynamic. Plenty of opportunity to do interesting work. Plenty of very experienced professionals in the company who are able to get things done. Opportunity to work with people from many Countries and appreciate different cultural backgrounds.

      Cons

      Limited career growth opportunities and training budgets limited. Working across time-zones can make working days very long. Compensation competitive although not reviewed for a while.

      Pros

      They have brought in new Sr. Management that are focused on getting the company profitable. At all costs. 18,000 people reduction in Japan. Closing 6 factories and discontinuing the sale of non-profitable products. Sr. Management is now focusing on basic business practices to improve employee performance.

      Cons

      Sr. management will not leave some of the traditional Japanese ways. All employees paid at the same pay (roughly - minor deviation). Also, performance reviews are decided by a committee (in an effort to equalize, but instead you get people weighing in who have no clue about other employees). Early Retirement allows the company to reduce headcount, but it is usually the best people that go.

      Pros

      Reasonable work & life balance if you are in the profitable organization.

      Cons

      Investment on R&D activity has been frozen or decreased. No sign of change in next few years.
