The company lacks vision. Its editors are like assembly-line workers in a contract manufacturing plant. This company has often been controversial. Previously, because it dealt with professional medical and health-nutrition topics, it was exposed by a medical professional; instead, it sent that doctor a certified letter with proof of contents, which could be seen as threatening. This is the kind of defensive behavior typical of a small company that does not dare respond publicly. People can keep an eye on this company—one day, something will happen.

The supervisor looks down on people who are almost thirty, saying they’re very old, without considering how old they are themselves and why they haven’t died yet. They require Japanese N2 and a TOEIC score of 850, but only offer 33K. All the books they publish are related to Trump; I guess they want to make American great again.
