Pros
- A rare, merit-based business arena in Japan where you can learn the value of providing value and make money while doing it - High degree of autonomy in choosing your own priorities - Building great company culture is clearly prioritized across the organization - Best part about Icon is that peers are smart, personable, and hard working. Makes the work enjoyable - Everyone has the chance to add to business planning and corporate strategy, a strong sense of company building - Direct access to approachable CEO. Genuine, self made president who is always looking to enrich others through his experience - Company is always hungry to give management opportunities to those that work hard to set an example and get results - Great environment for those willing to commit and have a high sense of personal standard/achievement
Kontras
- Will find it a difficult working environment if you need someone to tell you what to do 24/7 - Requires a high level of self management and development in order to succeed, the industry moves quickly and is competitive - Will not be enjoyable for people that are not adaptable to change and unexpected challenges - Size of companies requires people to wear multiple hats, leads to a learning experience though
