Makes the candidate feel valued.

Cons

Located at Aperia Mall, not the worst of places but not many options for food. If you don't speak Japanese or are unwilling to learn, may be at a disadvantage as a lot of HR material is in Japanese. you will either need to use pattern recognition/Google translate to do your HR material or just learn Japanese. Good news is that they offer subsidised learning which you can use on Japanese classes. (recommended as majority of your colleagues are able to speak to some degree)
