Business Outlook

Pros

There are good times and bad times working here however those were earlier good old days.

Cons

The culture over here is very localised compared to other Japanese MNC however there are many high politics players at this workplace. First of all talked about CEO a high profile top politics game player likes to manipulate own raise up managers and staff. He favours his own 'pets' more than anything. 2ndly talked about MD he is weak in anything not taking efforts to get in depth Daikin nature of business as well. A man pleaser to CEO rather than take care of any employees' interests. 3rdly HOD wasn’t educated no capabilities to lead the important departments in Daikin plug figures to entertain top management by using his “prawns”.
