The flip side to that coin is that it can be a struggle to fill the day while making yourself look busy. It is constantly made clear that the Tokyo office are top dogs and the other global offices are just there to enact whatever management in Tokyo decide even though they dont necessarily understand the nuances of the local environments. Even a simple procedural change requires sign off from basically any person impacted by it in Tokyo and leads to projects dragging out to the point where staff dont bother trying to improve things as it’s more hassle than it’s worth. There’s also a massive double standard when it comes to enforcing compliance and risk rules. A mistake in London will require a risk event to be created even though it might not have caused a loss, whereas an identical error with an identical outcome from the Tokyo office will be greeted with a shrug of the shoulders and a ‘just make sure next time’ attitude. Pay and bonuses below average.

Almost everything else. Terrible culture with unqualified people becoming senior managers.
