My outside impression of Japan and Taiwan is that they're horrific places for corporate work across the board.
Is this a stereotype fuelled by the black companies, or is it largely accurate?
- patio11 11y agoI have no personal experience of working in Taiwan, but anecdotally, it has a Japan-esque work culture. Full-time employment at a traditionally managed Japanese company -- i.e. being a salaryman -- is, largely, not an experience I would recommend to someone I loved. There exist some startups or e.g. foreign-owned firms which would be far less odious options. Living in Japan is wonderful. A++ would totally immigrate again. A substantial portion of my present happiness is having created a job which means that I am 99.8% insulated from Japanese megacorps.
