Pros
You will learn so much about education, Japan, Japanese language, cultural relativism, and of course, yourself. The pay is really good and the paid vacation is extremely generous + you get off all the public Japanese holidays (of which there are many).
Cons
Often times working in a foriegn culture and country, it is hard to integrate. As a foreigner in Japan, especially not knowing the language prior to arriving, it was pretty difficult. There is definitely a barrier between foreigners and natives, even if the foreigner speaks fluent Japanese.
