So, I am a non-native English speaker from India but passed the interview and got offerd a job at PKC. I'm currently in the process of obtaining the visa.
I came across a detailed post about PKC, but it was from 5 years ago. What I could gather from it was your experience would depend on lot of factors beyond your control. Like the area you're placed in, the commuting distance, and the character of your manager/supervisor. I don't mind long commutes because I think it will be a good opportunity to devote time for learning Japanese on my laptop. I heard that the pay was always on time and they do not skimp on that area. But the one thing that concerns me is that management can be terrible, and outright rude if they don't like you and you are left on your own trying to figure out difficult things to go about your work. But other accounts say that they had a very friendly and supportive environment.
Plus, there's also a lot of things to be anxious over because of sudden allotment of duties in new places out of the blue and the added pressure of being on time. If the trains or buses are late and you had no other means of getting there, it will still be counted as "your fault."
So, I wanted to know if there's anyone working there or recently resigned who can throw some light on what the situation is like? Have things changed for or gotten worse? What are the work schedules like? I heard it's a 6 days work week (Mon-Sat).
My plan is to stick it out with them come what may for my 1 year contract and look elsewhere after that.
