      Age, seniority matters, irrespective of skills, performance and knowledge.

      Pros

      As industry leader, it is surely a Global brand with great quality tires. The products are recognised worldover and customer recognises the quality.

      Cons

      Company hierarchy and the way promotions and benefits are given to employees. More benefits and rewards based on only years of work experience in past, irrespective of performance, education and skills.

      Pros

      Bridgestone provides steady work for most job types in a reasonable atmosphere. Their products are something to be proud of. Lately the business structure keeps salaries below the average, then compensates with large bonusses, easily 20% or more of the base salary.

      Cons

      HR. Vague employee feedback and information. HR in Nashville has been working to identify and fix issues that have been neglected for years. You can't tell if you are doing well or not until you are already in trouble. I imagine this varies in different departments and with different managers.

      Pros

      Good name to put in the CV and gather some international work experience; you have some exposure to the Japanese minds running the business and many international colleagues that make it a nicer time.

      Cons

      Quite high staff rotation due to poor career opportunities for non-japanese staff and little to learn after 3 months in the job. Very piramidal organization but not clear direction from senior management. Decission making is done in Japanese only meetings and very little feedback is given to the rest of the organization. Some japanese managers believe they can dictate on their subordinates like the shogun on his slaves; even if you are a manager you will have to get used to be the taxi driver, delivery boy,...
