Pros
Very intelligent colleagues and good product that customers appreciate. Salary is generally competitive for this industry and benefits are solid (although they have recently eroded for cost saving measures)
Cons
Group CEO vision changes daily. Employees are not treated with respect and trust. Tag lines such as "thrive, not just survive" are said to who will listen yet not one measurable action to improve staff satisfaction and engagement has been implemented. What they sell you when you interview is not close to what they deliver. Old School and Traditional Japanese culture makes communication difficult at best. Motivated employees will constantly feel undervalued. If you want to collect a paycheck and make lots of connections in the industry with great manufacturing shops, this is a good stop for your resume. If you want to do something special - look elsewhere. Your hard work, enthusiasm, and desire to take the company forward will not be recognized.
