Rakuten Compensation Employee Reviews

What is the best part about your compensation package?

salary is good with add on

We are paid well and the benefits that we are offered are better than anywhere I have ever worked. We are very well taken care of at Rakuten.

Affordable coverage for me and my family

Low cost health insurance with a wide coverage

Stock vesting after four years is a good way to retain employees -- though more cash would be better

Comfortable working space, free meals, nice office

Review from Engineering Dept

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

An increment and quality employee benefits and services

Pay shud be proportional to the level

Japan as a whole is behind the rest of the market when it comes to compensation, and Rakuten has been making some efforts to take the lead in closing this gap, but they could do better.

Review from Engineering Dept

Not having team managers create a lawsuit against coworkers they don't like, and/or be stabbed in the back for coming with suggestions would be a good start

Review from Engineering Dept

I would like to be able to work from home full time, not just part time.

Review from Engineering Dept

Bottom-tier pay to begin with, plus ridiculous KPIs just to keep your salary from going down.

Probably any other tech company would pay better
