Pros

Culture is fair and almost all employees are good. There are skillful people.

Cons

I archived a lot of work at the first year, but the salary increase was only +300,000 yen($30) base salary and 1 RSU for one time. And the additional RSU will be vested two years later. It's too small and two years are too long. No promotion even though my performance is better than others.

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Cons

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
