Outdated Company with outdated processes and outdated Managers

Pros

- Vacations - Not too demanding - Laid back environment

Cons

Professionly prepared employees are not well appreciated because Yazaki won't pay for their value and/or they may know a lot more than their Bosses. No professional growth. People have to wait up to 20-25 years to become a Manager. Managers are chosen based on their lack of skills, to avoid standout more than their bosses. I had never seen a Company with too many people doing nothing.

"Bad Company - Unfair and Unpleasant atmosphere"

Pros

Survive 6 - 12 months without doing anything as nobody knows whats happening on ground.

Cons

Not good place for competitive people. Old employees rule the roost and management turns a blind eye to anything related to oldies . Old timers get all the credit, appreciation, perks and appraisals. New hires have to work ten times harder to gain trust and attention of the management.Totally unfair organisation where owners would fall to any level to shield old employees .
