Typically Japanese but much better salary and benefits compared to other science positions - Postdoctoral Research Fellow RIKEN Employee Review

good and excellent for new

no everything fine everything normal

Good time off and work life balance rules (though some groups may not follow them) Smart, competent coworkers Lots of resources to do your job Decent resources for international researchers

Not a cut-throat environment, but not as collaborative as other labs I've worked Some groups have more toxic cultures
