Business Outlook
Pros
- Many opportunities to broaden one's cultural experiences, especially w.r.t. the Japanese culture - Few formal corporate systems in overseas subsidiaries, hence broad scope of stepping up and taking the initiative BUT see also related Con
Cons
- Below market remuneration for non-Japanese staff - Non-Japanese staff often kept out of the loop on developments - Few formal corporate systems means that staff are at the mercy of management. If management likes you, that is fine. If not, then not much you can do about it. - Related to the above, nepotism and discrimination tend to flourish in such an environment.
