Pros

There are some great people at the company and if you network correctly you can thoroughly enjoy making friends on the job.

Cons

Used to be out in Secaucus, now in Newark -- not sure which is worse. I was at the old facility so I am not sure if the new spaces are an improvement. However, reverse commuting from Manhattan is just a tiresome chore. The environment is very Japanese, corporate and stuffy. Nothing against Japanese culture, but in the workplace there is a false sense of fear and hierarchy around titles and roles. Just not a lot of room to be creative when all the focus is on generating sales and competing with Samsung.

Pros

Good benefits, Health and Dental, Vision, up to 4% 401k match

Cons

New management has no idea how business supposed to be managed. They are pulling management folks from Intel and Amazon. Taking new development to Oregon where their homes are. Also, sent most of the work to India to show the profitability. The company doesn't have traditional Japanese culture any more under current management as everyone is trying to fill their pockets and looking for their benefits.
