Pros

I saw real leadership demonstrated in Japan. A clear strategy and commitment to deliver it. A fantastic part of an impressive global company.

Cons

I saw a disconnect between top management and operations. Better communication to floor staff would have clarified the reason for decisions.

Pros

Free for all environment-that's the best way I can explain it. For someone who had no prior leadership skills or needed to develop initiative skills and problem-solving then it's beneficial. I had no prior experience in fund accounting and learned a great deal. Opportunity to move up fast if you dig their culture

Cons

Lack of procedures No team morale/spirit Management lack of leadership skills Hard to grasp the overall values or culture of the company Long Long long hours Lack of engagement activities for staff Pay is NOT competitive at ALL!
