This ignores the issue that while Japan opens the red carpet for people to move and work in Japan, once you get past the welcoming mat you enter the vaunted Japanese Business Grind where you get to deal with incredibly long working hours, abuse and shitty pay. This is before you even start talking about black companies.

The reason why foreigners have trouble accepting Japanese culture is because work culture in Japan is so incredibly toxic except in rare circumstances that you don't bother adapting and you don't bother learning.

Not sure what's up with the downvotes: that's a harsh but accurate assessment of what it's like to work at the average large Japanese company.

"Burakku Kigyou" are (usually) white-collar 'sweatshop' type companies. Long hours, bad pay.
