      Too much centrally controlled for a global company. Decisions are slow. Not the top paying company in the industry.

      Pros

      Result is not the most importnatb KPI. They evaluate by the process. In general, quite leinient with the result as long as you are thinking, implementing with logical thoughts. You would have worlking experience of anouther division/department outside of your specilaity if you wish. You can express your opinion very freely even to your direct boss.

      Cons

      Long working hours, reflecting good and bad of japanese org culture,,,to many meeting Less paid (but much better pay compare to normal japanese company) considering the long hors of working. the promotion is not only based by the actual performance as said in "pros" column. So it would be frustrating for those familiare with strict result oriented compnay ...ie US comany culture.
