Pros

I interned with them. SEI is a traditional Japanese multi national company with a strong culture, and which is improving year after year. It is very well organized, it has world-class facilities. It operates in many countries and different industries. The people are kind, a lot of emphasis is put on the safety the employees. The management believes in continuous improvement. All employees can talk to senior managers. There are many opportunities to interact with managers at all levels.

Cons

As with many Japanese companies, the salaries do not correspond with the cost of living in Japan.
