Q&A With FUJIFILM Employees

In my case I got promoted through my dedicated work, never had to apply to get promoted. Started as CSR, Secretary to Technical manager, supervisor to CSR, Product Management, Marketing Manager, Operations Management from National to North American.

Division Managers make decisions

It’s PTO (paid time off) according to tenure

It’s PTO (Paid Time Off) not vacations, you have to earn your PTO’s based on your tenure

Very easy because I made good friends

Better because I made lots of friends

My only challenge was working with our Sales Managers and last Representative from our Tokyo headquarters who was very unethical and narcissistic

My only challenge was dealing with my superiors in the last 3 years, Japanese and Canadian bosses took down the division until it was diluted, sad because as a woman I had no power to voice my opinion.

Was eliminated during the past 10 years before I retired, they used to be at Amusement Parks

We used to have Company Picnics and Christmas parties but during the last 5 years every division did their own within our Division.

Loved my job, was very enjoyable

I used to love going to work, I hired good people which made our group fun to always do better.

Can’t answer today, you need to trust the brand

You must trust the brand, and study the competition

Depending who you work for

People who trust the labels they represented

You have to set your pace and always keep in mind Your duties as you committed on your performance assessment

I used to set my own paces, never left work with anything pending.

My group

I loved my job and enjoyed going to work every day. In the last 3 years, unfortunately a selection of management brought the division down.

Was excellent

Unfortunately all by computer, personal interaction is rare

Once a year

Once a year after yearly performance reviews

Was the best

Depending on the division, it can be great or bad depending on who is heading it.

Nothing

Nothing it’s a great company.

My group was very diversified

Very diversified

Cubicles and glass offices

Offices and cubicles, when I was there.

When I was there good health benefits and 401K match

Great benefits and 401K match

Never had an interview

I was promoted internally during my 35 years from CSR to North America Operations Manager

Be assertive and knowledge on the products

Provide assertiveness and willing to give feedback to make improvements

After 35 years with the company I retired making 135K

In my case, i was compensated fairly my last 10 years because a new manager noticed I had been under paid. Our group was re-evaluated and all our salaries were adjusted fairly.

I worked unlimited times on and off the office

I’m retired now, I worked long hours during my 35 years, mostly because I interacted with overseas counterparts

Very level

Depends where you work, our group had a good balance we were able to cover all our work as a teammates

He is an Industry Iconic figure in Japan .

CEO are at headquarters, corporate communication to the distribution centers and departments is key to educating all employees, needs to break up the silos and communicate more effectively

First HR, Department Management and if final candidate you will be coming back for additional interviews.

Long process, if you are called back twice consider yourself a candidate, 3 times you are one of the finalist

I would eliminate offices and cubicles open floor plan and emphasize on commadery, cross training and provide daily open meeting
