Pros

Bosses in higher position are very considerate. You can meet a lot of interesting people from all over the world as colleagues.

Cons

My direct manager's style was quite the old Japanese way - demotivating. Training was basically just a quick run through and as a newcomer, you have to figure the rest on your own.

Pros

Rakuten Rewards has great life balance. Too bad the economy was getting rocked.

Cons

Don't really have any cons. I understand that the market's been hard so had to downsize the force, so that was kinda challenging. Hopefully AI will increase everyone's output.
