Pluspunten

- As a new grad, if you get lucky and get placed in a team that operates internationally, there will be opportunities for you to travel abroad. - If you get lucky and get placed in a team/division that isn't predominantly Japanese, then you'll get to meet smart, talented, and like-minded foreigners from all around the world who are open-minded and have multicultural mindsets -- two qualities that are important when working at a global company. Additionally, you'll get to form strong friendship with your foreigner doukis, especially because you go through the same/similar hardships together (esp. ones that arise from language barrier and cultural misunderstanding). Notice I say "if you get lucky."

Minpunten

Basically, the reverse of the pros listed above. Additionally: - Depending on where you get placed, you may get asked to do a lot of English translations almost every day, even though it's not part of your job. - Low pay. Forget about getting a promotion or a significant pay raise. It'll take many years until you get it, especially because Rakuten is based on a seniority wage system (HR will tell you otherwise, but trust me. That's how it works.)

Pluspunten

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

Minpunten

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.
