Pros

Financially sound. Great product. Respected name.

Cons

Low pay. Poor management being sent from headquarters in Japan. No vision. Management focus is the short term dollars at any cost. No real ideas or plans on how to grow market. Staff & management coming out of the headquarters office have very limited knowledge of doing business in the US, but they run everything and make all the decisions. Staff & management hired in the US are not allowed to participate in any real significant decisions. It is a two class system and only the class coming out of the headquarters location oversees matter – the rest are second class. Most associates and managers are very frustrated.

Pros

Paychecks come on time, they have a decent rep in the ceramic packaging world. I worked with some wonderful people.

Cons

This is not a sales job, your are managing accounts with no incentive. QA issues non stop, legal issues, payment, anything and everything comes back on "sales". Every day was a new fire that always felt like preparing for a deposition where each employee starts pointing fingers at one another. Horrible moral. Depends heavily on your direct management. I'll just say that I had emailed some of the issues i was having to my manager (something I've never had to do my entire career) and nothing changed, except that they had logged into my email and deleted it so there was no record. It was not a good situation.
