Pros

Company has (virtually) unlimited days of sick time. Time-off policies are geared towards supporting employee health and family. The company is stable given that it operates in a very niche market of In-Flight Entertainment. Personal growth is limited.

Cons

Bonus is a joke at this company. Most experienced people gets few thousand dollars compared to many other companies paying $20K to 35K bonus. 401K benefit is also poor. Maximum you get 4% employer match compared to other employers matching 8% to 12%. The upper management is almost born in this company so they don't have much real world of management experience. You are expected to work your head down and don't ask any questions to the manager. Personal growth is almost nil.

Pros

clean,and simple. pay is decent. One of the easiest A&P jobs you can ever expect to have.

Cons

pay is decent, however don't expect to make much in raises... After two years only a 1.05$ raise...Mcdonalds gets a 3$ raise after two years... Laptops are fairly decent however one laptop must be shared by 3 employees making paper work a pain... not to mention the occasional laptop breakdown. Promotions are close to none. Favoritism is clearly evident however this maybe only a localized situation.

Pros

The benefit package was quite good. Healthcare coverage was excellent. Sales people had very nice company cars. 401K had a match. Vacation/holidays were generous. Excellent, high quality products.

Cons

It is difficult to adjust to Japanese culture/methods/policies. No clear career path for promotions. Do more with less attitude. Every month's sales is critical. Constant need for reports/paperwork/market surveys. Product innovation lacking. Competitors are more nimble.
