Pros

Personally, they gave me loads of responsibilities. I was able to get my feet with sales, meeting customers and opportunity to be creative with their products

Cons

Huge cultural differences Too much micromanagement Terrible commission structure Low base pay Boring - there's only so much Japanese sauce you can sell..

Pros

Continuously improving benefits (401k matching, visit to Japanese headquarters after 5 years) Continuously improving sales (new Marketing department, sales incentives) Continuously improving equipment (New IT department, sales activity management) Flexible transfers (If a position doesn't suit you and there is an opening, you can be transferred to a different department) Continuously improving production (expansion plant is planned, new sales offices opening seemingly yearly)

Cons

Misunderstandings due to language barrier still existent Anecdotally average salaried employees work 45+ hours a week management works 50+ Could be more flexible in general
