Pros

Good benefits. You meet some good people. Experience working in a large dysfunctional company - this will help you choose better next time.

Cons

Management style is to pressure and threaten. Disconnect between higher management and people who build the product. The result is compressed timelines, long hours and unstable product.

Pros

Rakuten Rewards has great life balance. Too bad the economy was getting rocked.

Cons

Don't really have any cons. I understand that the market's been hard so had to downsize the force, so that was kinda challenging. Hopefully AI will increase everyone's output.
