      Horribly run company by a crazy CEO

      Pros

      Sorry but there aren't any pros. This company is completely unorganized. No one knows what is going on. The CEO is all about his way is the only way.

      Cons

      You will be forced to exist in a company with a Japanese culture that is rammed down your throat. Policies make no sense at all. You will be forced to endure a weekly mandatory one hour meeting where you have to listen to what is going on in parts of the company that have no relation to you or your job. Truly the worst managed company I have ever worked for.
