The HR department’s excessive overtime situation is outrageous. People work until 1 a.m., go home to sleep for a while, and then continue working. The head of HR requires mid-level managers to remain stationed in the office even on typhoon days (I don’t know whether this has changed). Colleagues go to the doctor and have dinner after their official working hours, then return to the company to continue working overtime. Weekends are no exception; those who don’t go to the company simply take the work home to do it. The most common thing I hear from colleagues’ partners is, “Do you want a divorce or do you want to resign?”
Long working hours would not be a problem in themselves, but the head of the department manages subordinates in a militarized manner, constantly instilling in employees the idea that they must devote themselves to the company and repeatedly dismissing what subordinates do. As a result, this is an extremely high-pressure department with no sense of accomplishment. Although the department claims to want innovation, in practice it does not want to spend more money or manpower improving existing processes. All I can say is that it is a very good training ground, because after working in this department of this company, everywhere else feels tolerable.
