Pros

Good and Talented Colleague around

Cons

Worst Management-None of them know how to run a company or treat Employees. They openly blame employee for silly thing saying its Indian Employee Mentality and complete lack of trust on employees-Security Guard notes down at what time u come to office and leave in a register, they note even ur break timing. This company Fails in every aspect and department possible. They carefully select employess while hiring but fail to give them good opportunities. Most of managers behave like puppets to there tokyo counterparts. if u have good relationship with ur managers and do whatever they direct u too do than ur actual work u will be appreciated and promoted. Most of the time u will be in meeting rooms or u will be sending ur reports to ur managers(U will have multiple managers for whom u have to answer). Lot of politics, you never know who is stabbing you from behind. For most of the people who thought the work environment would be better after the BOT Program its a big Disappointment. Stay Away from this company incase u wanna work in healthy work environment. Even your designation is based on the salary you ask for, higher the salary better the designation.

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.
