Pros

The dynamics of the organisation have changed over the recent years and focus is starting to shift from a product driven organisation to a solution driven organisation. The company culture is gradually chaning from a Japanese one to a more european one.

Cons

Relationships with the national sales organisations could be improved. Talent management has been initiated but new appointments still are based on old networks. The company culture is really risk averse and changes and innovation can take a long time.

Pros

Everyone is genuinely nice and cares about their jobs. Nice offices, and big corporate backing. Can't really say that the experience was negative but for high acheivers/ ambitious people probably not what you're looking for.

Cons

A ton of bueracracy, there are some many layers of approval that even the simplest things take months to get done. They never take any risks and ideas are very top down. Slow career progression and mediocre salary. Only way to progress is to hope someone in the same position retires or leaves.
