      Pros

      nothing for me; the company seems like a joke

      Cons

      poorly managed by incompetent people Stupidity in every level My work was never properly planned or organized Stupid and meaningless kpis A total waste of my time and like Should have resigned from day I if not for the visa thing But anyway Japan is a hugely depressing and boring place what makes matters worse, people there love to look "famil-y"--I guess that's what people in toxic company cultures love:)

      Inexperienced CEOs, mass forced resignation, company is a sinking ship

      Anonymous employee (marketing)
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      It's a failing startup. The only pros are the people (not upper management): you're working with talented and bilingual people who have worked with great companies. Unfortunately, most of them have left or are leaving too.

      Cons

      - People are severely overworked because of brutal KPIs, rigged so high that no one will pass it (this way, they have reason not to promote you) - Severely bad HR and employee mismanagement. Recently, they have laid off 70% of employees. They don't even have the money to pay severance, and are just forcing employees to resign. - Employees who are offered to "stay" get a 20% pay cut with 2-3 times more tasks. - Hypocrites: They claim to donate food for children in need, which is all just marketing to please their investors. They don't even want to pay their employees and constantly change HR policies to favor the company. - Company is in the middle of laying off people, so if you join, it will be very messy. It is very "hail Mary" at this point.
