A disappointing startup

Pros

Startup. You get to be able to work on a number of different jobs in different locations. There is very little structure so that you have no idea what the strategy is or what the goals are.

Cons

Startup. Alot of politics. There were a number of layoffs. The CEO was incompetant. The problem is that you get people with a good pedigree, but who are unable to get anything done.

Pros

When you get the support from Japan, business was good. Great brand, old and stodgy right now, but you could do so much with it.

Cons

They hate doing business in the US. The margins are so thin especially compared to Europe and Asia. They have a great brand, but except in Japan they are doing little with it. They need tor re-invigorate the brand and get people in there that are competent and let them do their job.

Pros

The working environment is pleasant which has much to do with the people who work there. The facilities are generally good: there is a Sports Hall, gymnasium, bar, and restaurant.

Cons

There is no recognisable promotional structure. What you are you will be for years unless you play golf with the management. You can wait a long time for a promotional pay rise, and in many instances, it's a case of dead man's shoes..
