      Thank you for providing your feedback. We also see Rakuten Kobo as a great place to work and the work-from-home flexibility is certainly a crowd-favourite. Our Stock Option program vests over a four-year period, with a portion of the grant typically vesting each year, and refresher grants awarded annually. If you would like more information on how to exercise or sell during the quarterly exercise/sale periods, please reach out to the Total Rewards Team who handles our compensation programs.

      Pros

      Free ebook every week, good benefits, free lunch every day if you’re in the office.

      Cons

      Extremely siloed to the point where people in the same team don’t even communicate. A lot of people that are hired are not fit for the role they are hired for. A lot of favortism, same people getting recognition over and over again even for mediocre work. They try to sell this image of being a friendly brand/company to work for but there is a good amount of hostility, cliques and politics within the org that make it difficult to navigate. Pay is not competitive.
