Daikin reviews

Low basic Plenty of politics Very high turnover rate (ALL DEPARTMENTS) Management seems clueless to what is happening Overall, a very poorly managed company

Extremely politcal, and corporate environment if you work in the office and are not traveling employee. The top managers that come from the headquarters in Japan are sexist and demoralizing. Daikin North America is a subsidiary of Daikin Industries, which is the owner/parent company based out of Japan. The mentality from upper management is very sexist and racist towards Americans of all colors. I worked directly under a manager who was brought to America from Daikin Japan, because they did not trust "lazy" Americans to properly manage their "workers" efficiently, and you have to be TOUGH to stay with this group for long. Two stars because I did love the type of work I did at Daikin, however it was not worth being made to feel inferior, and expected to work overtime everyday. Like others have said, if you have NO LIFE outside of work and prefer to have a job with a company that expects you to sacrifice time with your family, or other personal obligations for the "good of the company" then this is the place for you! This ties into the Japanese worth ethic, and culture diversity between how it is in Japan and the US... the directors from Daikin Japan speak badly of employees based on their sex, ethnicity, education level, and appearance.
