Pros

Good for building up and testing your perseverance. Managers do not really value good work-life balance, but for Japanese employees, work is more important. Compensation is surprisingly competitive. Very strong principals.

Cons

You are first a Rakuten employee, and then a human being. No clear career progression provided by top management.

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.
