Cult-like - Recensione dipendente - Sales Operator presso Zenken

Salary much lower than market average. Toxic motivation (e.g: you're praised if you can do everything and put all of your free time until 2 a.m to contribute to the company, etc). Lots of guilt tripping. Fake career advancement (salary doesn't really go up, only job title and workload). Might be a pleasant experience if you're talentless except at sales, and stay on the good side of management. The top executive guy said he is disgusted when he sees employees cry at work, while a team leader told the employee to go back to the bathroom to finish crying, because she should not show red eyes in front of other colleagues. Forbid employees to have private hang outs, and some foreign employees are even forbidden to have lunch together in the company's lunch room (probably because they speak English, and most suspect that they're in a cult). They advertise that they treat all employees Japanese and foreigners the same, but actually they mean the "expectations" are the same, a.k.a if you're a foreigner you must speak and act 100% Japanese in order to be left alone. The whole time there I just felt like heaven on the days I could just go on with my job without them creating some thing to torture me with. After 3 years leaving them, I finally got over my trauma to write a review.
