How’s the work culture? I’ve heard pretty bad stuff.

Working for a Japanese company can be rough, but if you work for a foreign company or have a foreign manager it’s mostly fine.
It seems that a society where trains run on time with amazing precision has to also be a society where you get berated if you’re a few minutes late for work.
It can be worse than that. I remember the poor Rakuten folks being under a 3 strike system if they arrived after 9:30AM at Crimson House.

It definitely created an unnecessary morning rush at Futako Tamagawa.
