Pros

If you need a job they can provide some good experience, and through that experience you will learn to appreciate every other company you work for

Cons

Long term goals are to dismantle the US site, evidenced in the complete outsourcing of MIS from 400 people to 11, with IBM doing everything. Overall, 2300 employees in 2002 down to 850 in 2008 speaks for itself

Pros

Good benefits, Health and Dental, Vision, up to 4% 401k match

Cons

New management has no idea how business supposed to be managed. They are pulling management folks from Intel and Amazon. Taking new development to Oregon where their homes are. Also, sent most of the work to India to show the profitability. The company doesn't have traditional Japanese culture any more under current management as everyone is trying to fill their pockets and looking for their benefits.
