Pros

When I talked to DENSO associates, they told me that even associates in entry level position are given work that they were in charge of. I also talked to people from various departments like planning, sales, and production management, and I got a good impression from all of them. Another consideration was DENSO's financial strength. DENSO has brand power overseas, and in addition to its technological strengths, I thought it was strong financially as well.

Cons

I think my salary is not good enough; long working time
