Rakuten hire as a trainee or trainee consultant. After 6 months they won't confirm job or convert to full time employees. Even if you do well also. They just keep extending trainee period by paying stipend. After that they laid off saying no openings or budget. My Senior was so rude treating me so badly. She used to humiliate me.
Dislikes
They won't make employees fulltime after 6 months. They just keep on extending

Dislikes
They’ll hire you as a trainee for 6 months first then won’t convert you as a permanent employee and expect to do all the work in low income and no grade at all. At the end of the day you’re just a trainee and the experience wouldn’t be of much use.

* Depends on team, but work life balance is good in most of the teams.
* Work location is center of the city with access to metro
Dislikes
* Indian management does not have much say in day to day work or appraisals.
* Pay is average
* Time is spent more on process rather than actual code and at the last moment after all the development the product might not go to production
* Japanese work culture, you are not appreciated even if you deliver above and beyond your role

It is good from the GCC side.
Dislikes
The work environment for folks in corporate functions and lower down the rung is not cared for. Some toxic folks in the higher rung create havoc and the rest either need to face the music, or are asked to leave.
People centric work culture is a farce.

Company culture was good but deteriorating gradually.
You can take a bit of flexibility in timings unless you have a meeting.
3 meals a day is provided on booking it a day prior.
Good team outing and people in general are quite approachable.
Some events are competitions are conducted like chess, foosball etc.
Free gym with instructor.
Washrooms are maintained well with sanitary pads for women.
Dislikes
Had toxic team leads and manager who weren't supportive.
Give hope to convert interns/trainee to full-time employees but will revoke it a lot citing budget issues.(Happens every year)
They have forced a lot of people to resign.
