Pros
The company offers more vacation weeks than many others, which is a notable benefit. The work environment is dynamic enough that it rarely feels monotonous.
Cons
The direction of the company is very on the ego and the mood of the leader, who makes a climate of fear. They want to show they are effective, but the decisions in the leadership don’t really value the knowledge and the competences of the teams. Sometimes, you ask yourself if they want really that the project succeed. HR is always going to follow and back up the president’s decisions, even when it means to put the ethics and the values on the side. In my time at Fuji Semec, I saw a lot of good talents go, from assemblers and engineers to managers, and it was not done in a professional way. Directors don’t stay long; they get transferred, they resign, or they leave, and the company don’t say the reason. The president’s guy (the one who makes his lunch every day) has the power to influence the people and influence your job.
