Pros

good pay, relaxed culture, frequent catered meals, friendly, welcoming people, top-of-the-line benefits, good bosses, nice location, work-provided laptop

Cons

weekly meetings with the whole company that are not very pertinent to me. That's imposed by corporate in Japan. Challenging industry - if Rakuten stops innovating and adapting, things could go south quickly, but I think we're on the right track.

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.
