Toyota Tsusho reviews

1. 2(!) layers of attendance marking, one with your card and the second using a finger scanner! Asinine. 2. Japanese have a carte blanche to do whatever they want in the company eg. too many unnecessary "entertainment" which can be up to SGD 6K at one time for drinks at "gentleman's" bars. Utter disgrace and waste of resources. 3. Many ladies who get promoted by drinking with top management and behaving like call girls. I get it, Japan wants to show it promotes women but please promote the right women, not those who rely solely on their political skills and not their capability or lack thereof. 4. Salary is way below market level, your so-called "high" variable bonus is the standard bonus in so many companies. 5. CEO should start to walk the talk. Been hearing his talk about embracing change and diversity for way too long but the status quo is still being maintained and enforced.

If I had to use one word to describe the management at Tsusho, it would be abusive. Non-management employees are treated very poorly. Management does not support their employees. The HR department is only concerned with making sure management is happy. As an employee, I expressed concerns about my manager. HR told me they were aware of the poor treatment my department received from the manager; however there was nothing they (HR) could do because executive management liked the manager of my department. The benefits and pay are not worth the stress brought on by the office politics at Tsusho. The only people who have a chance at advancement at Tsusho are the Japanese employees and Caucasian men. Tsusho is the place for you if you want to work for a company that expects you to spend every waking moment at work (and most people do not receive overtime pay). I was actually told that I shouldn't plan on starting a family because the job wouldn't leave me with enough time for a family. When I first took the job at Tsusho I was excited about getting to travel all over the country and learn about the different industries. After a while, I realized management did not care about me or my fellow co-workers. My department alone has a 100% turnover rate. We all claimed management's treatment of employees as the reason we left, but nothing ever changed and it probably never will.
