On the positive side, employees at Fujikura appreciate the company's focus on technical skills and the time provided to work on production. Additionally, working at Fujikura offers exposure to Japanese culture through interactions with Japanese colleagues.
However, there are some potential areas for improvement. Some employees feel there are limited career advancement opportunities at this traditional Japanese firm. There is also a perception that the work environment could be enhanced. The onboarding and training process is an area that could be strengthened through better induction and more hands-on training. Finally, Fujikura's management style is viewed by some as autocratic, with decisions made by the managing director based more on emotion than employee feedback.
