Japanese corporate life– tag –

Japan's work culture can be bewildering for newcomers, with its emphasis on overtime, nomikai, and unwritten rules. I recall my colleague, Rohan from Mumbai, struggling to understand why his Japanese colleagues would often stay late at the office, only to go out drinking together afterwards. As a Japanese person, it's easy to take these customs for granted, but for foreigners, they can be a significant obstacle to navigating the workplace.
