Reviews about "free lunch"
Return to all Reviews- 3.0Jun 30, 2023EngineerCurrent Employee, less than 1 yearTokyo

Cons
Still need to make organization right
- 1.0Jun 14, 2014Software EngineerFormer Employee, more than 3 yearsTokyo
Pros
Free lunch and nice-ish employees I seriously don't know what else
Cons
Silly company rules that slow down every single process Lack of communication The environment is still extremely Japanese and not willing to embrace diversity. The culture is almost military-like, where everyone is expected to behave all the same, following the nonsensical work process. Departments don't communicate well with each other, resulting in you always having to explain the situations when you get contacted by multiple people from different sectors - especially in English.
