Ventajas
Great Culture, with constant improvements. Work hard play hard. Everyone is friendly and actively seeks to include others. This year they're reorganizing the bonus structure(to make them bigger!) and adding training and conference budgets for all employees. That's something you don't see very often. Good work life balance. We have our peaks(like most places), but there's no expectation of year round crunch. You get out of this company as much as you put into it, if you really know how to own something and make it happen, you can do it here, with support all along the way. Funding isn't an issue here. Having worked for startups it's nice not worrying about my next paychecks. Our revenue is growing significantly YoY, and we're owned by Rakuten(think of them like the Amazon of Japan)
Desventajas
Rakuten really really likes older business models, and feels better about older IT policies. We had gmail and google apps implemented and it worked all the time. Going back to Outlook is a serious downgrade and has caused some problems in our ability to do our job. The IT team is great, the software they have to support? Not so much. Intranet and having to VPN in hasn't impacted my department yet, but there is even more concern around that. That way of working is outdated and unreliable. I'm aware of up and coming solutions for all of the other issues I can think of, this company is generally great about taking feedback from employees into consideration.
