The Japanese see the company as a community.

Japanese tend to prioritize the interests of their group over the interests of Westerners. This may be because the Japanese people value harmony. Also, unlike the hunting culture of Europe and the United States, Japan was a rice-growing culture, so it must have been emphasized that there is cooperation in the company in modern society by fostering cooperation.

Changes in white-collar awareness and invitations from recruitment agency consultants

However, in recent years, due to the introduction of Western merit and performance-based principles in Japan and the collapse of lifetime employment, some white-collar workers have begun to be attracted to attractive workplaces and high compensation. However, this may be a limited opportunity for employees in some metropolitan areas such as Tokyo or those enrolled in well-known companies.

Furthermore, although there are many recruitment agencies from before, the number of middle-class and executives changing jobs to foreign-affiliated companies is increasing due to the further entry of foreign-affiliated recruitment agencies.
