Japan Job Benefits

Looks like a good week for stuff that lands in ones lap ^^;
-Good Smile Racing stickers
-GSC 1/4 scale Nanoha Takamachi (Shes huge!)
-Griffon Chizuru
-Orchid Seed Rio
-Nendoroid Nagi
-Nendoroid Kureha
-Nendoroid Kagami
-Figma Mikuru Waitress
-Figma Tsuruya Waitress
-Figma Kagami
-Yuki Gekisou Ver
-Some other stuff that I'll talk about in a separate post ^^;
Job benefits at Mirai Inc seem to be much better than the ones I had at Amazon or Microsoft ^^;
At Amazon, we had some sort of discount card that we could use to get cheap rates at hot springs and restaurants around Japan.
At Microsoft, we had the same card but the best thing was that we also got up to 8% (or 10% - I forget) off products at the Apple store! Not many Microsoft employees know this though - there was a discount code on the Intranet of the apple software that Microsoft makes - Office, messenger etc.
For those who are working - what sort of job benefits do you get?
If you are interested in reading about life in Japan, seeing photos taken daily around Tokyo, like Japanese subculture (anime, manga, figures, Dollfies) then you may want to start delving into the Japan or Figure categories for a start or have a gander at all photo articles.
If you don't have much time now, maybe subscribe to the RSS Feed, Twitter Feed or join the other readers in the FaceBook Page.
Alternatively, you may want to read more about the site.
If you are a regular reader then this message will probably annoy you each time - hide it forever.

None. Working as a shuttle driver gives no discounts to students or career drivers... we could at least get food money or parking permits but we get zip.

Free entrance to most attractions around town. Get to watch hockey/basketball games for free while others have to pay to get in. That's probably the best part. XD
Network Security Specialist
That Nanoha Takamachi looks awesome! As for job benefits:
I work for CSC (http://www.csc.com/) as a contractor for the Department of the Navy. I get the usual benefits:
- Medical Insurance
- Dental Insurance
- Vision Insurance
- 401-K with company matching
- Pension with company matching
- Discounts at theme parks and movie theaters
- All major and government holidays off (Paid)
- 2 weeks paid vacation every year
- Tuition reimbursement (Paying for my MBA) <-- This one is my favorite as it would have cost me tens of thousands of dollars to afford it otherwise! @_@
Then we have the fringe benefits:
- Cafe on site
- Gym
- Lake that you can fish at and take a boat on
- Not far from the beach (Orange County, CA)
- Get to travel around the world to different US Navy sites to work on stuff.
- Other stuff that I'm forgetting.
Overall, its not bad. CSC is a "good" company to work for, but I'm always looking up and forward! Never get too comfortable or you will never grow.

Thanks, but its still nothing compared to working at Mirai~ My plan is to stay in my current position until I max out my potential for growth, then move on to something better!
BTW, if you get your Master degree, will you study abroad or stay in SG?

I'd love to work for you, Danny! Unfortunately, I can't work in Japan since I don't have a 4-year degree. Is there a way around that or am I S.O.L. until I get one?
If you'd like, I could send you my resume as well.

Danny, I envy how you used to get these SAFS all the time~~ I hope one day I would have this kind of experience! I guess this reward will come naturally once you had achieved success, so although I wish but I'm not worry about not getting it, it will come when I get there. :-)
Sorry for the long rant.

Working for Danny would never get old lol..

Holy cow! Where are you gonna put all this? XD Gonna put the 1/4 Nanoha next to the Nanoha Dollfie? :D
Hmm... job benefits, job benefits... Aside from the dental and health care plan? Well before this recession thing, I used to have 3 days off from work. But with the recession thing, I get 4 days off from work! I dunno if you wanna call them benefits, but I use those days off up to its full potential... by finishing some erog...

Getting 10% off Apple products from Micrisoft is kinda funny. "Work hard to get a system over @ the Apple store with an OS you should try to copy in the future" ???
Not working = no benefits, besides lots of freetime xD
For 8 weeks im a NEET
Niceeeee. Man you are sooo lucky. I'll have too try my luck and see if I can land a job like that. But first ill have to work really hard to get where you are.

If anyone would want a discount on our clothing, I control that too and could send coupons anyone-who-ask's way ^^i.
I get 40% off anything and I can special order anything from the brands we sell; which really doesn't help me due to none of our products are my style/taste.
Just no health insurance, vacation/sick days or anything really helpful.

But really, considering my graduation course, I am quite sure that my future job benefits might be useful but undoubtly boring. =P

Very nice pile of loot there, Danny. n.n
As for benefits, well I'm heading back to my old employer for the summer. There we have some discounts from various companies, some from being an employee of that company, others coming from our parent company. When I first started there back in 2001, the benefits were incredibly awesome, such as paying for your health insurance premiums if you'd been with the company long enough, and paying for some technical classes. Unfortunately, alot of that dropped by the wayside over the years, however. Especially the health insurance.
http://networkzero.blogspot.com/
I hate you so much (not really, just envious, very, very envious you get such cool stuff). ;)
Only free stuff i ever got was when i was doing a lot of work with a record label, got a lot of free (and not so good mostly) promos from bands wanting to sign or play a gig. Your free stuff is much better, although i got to meet a lot of decent big band members.

Computer Technician
Yah I was thinking the same thing, its kind of a oxymoron :)
Student, part-time worker
I would go crazy if I got as much stuff as you do. I wouldn't know what to do with it all. @_@
My only job benefits are...I get to go into work whenever I want. Though, it's not that great because I don't earn very much money because of it. It's great for when I have school, though, so if I have homework I can just do it instead of having to put it off because of work.
That's about it though. :x

I have horrible benefits compared to what I had while in the US Coast Guard. I now only have 5 days paid vacation and 3 sick days. No health insurance (although I am covered by the Veterans Association). So its not the best.

Engineering in Computers student
Well... I'm working on a McDonalds at weekends. We can have a few products (it depends on the hours you're working that day) for free in our free time or after working.
If you want something a day you're not working, you get a 15% discount. You also get it in some other McDonald's around Barcelona and surroundings.
It's not much but, at summer hollidays, when they make you work all the week, you save a little money in food.

sometimes I get up to 50% off on hifi stuff like cables or on kitchen ware etc. ^^

So what are the benifits you recive now? Does it include dental and medical?
College Freshmen
It's funny that you get a discount for a rival company.

http://japanweloveyou.blogspot.com
Yeah: Now you're just bragging. ^^)
Teaching has very little benefits - especially if you teach high school in Australia. Apparently there used to be this great super-annuation plan, but no more. plus you get abuse hurled at you all day, you're expected to work through all your breaks, and even though you may do 2 or 3 hours of prep at home each night, there's no over time.
but hey - the pens are free.
Now I work a lovely retail job with no responsibility. I actually get lunch and tea breaks, and a 15% discount! I'm not expected to take work home much. It's a pay cut, but it's mindless and repetitive and I LOVE IT!
College Student
I get to talk to more world-wise supervisors at my part-time job. One teaches graduate Buddhism classes and another is quite involved in the classical music scene and beer. Also learned lots about office politics and how to mediate intra-workspace conflicts there... lol.

Nice benefits!
What benefits do I get? Hmm.. In fact nothing really >_<
Ok, my Internet and telephone is 30% cheaper than normal but apart from that, there are nothing noteworthy.
The company car isn´t really useful besides for work.
Customer Service
I work for the nations biggest cell phone company. I get discounts on health insurace, car insurance and my cell phone and internet. I get 50% off of my cell service and I usually get one free test phone I can use to teather to my comp for free internet service. We also have paid vacatiion and sales spiffs and a company gift card that can be used at 120 differnet stores in teh country or that I can have added to my pay check. Its not as cool as a room full of Figma action figures or a life in Japan but it will do for now lol
http://www.stefkov.com/
What do I get? I get awful pay working ridiculous hours. And there is never a set closing time sometimes. I can be told we're open until 11 and still be there until 1... am.
That's only a job I do when no-one else can work.
I am jealous, your hobby is typing and reviewing about this stuff, and you get it free... If i was you I'd be a really, really happy man. And you quite clearly are.

We get insurance as a job benefit but we have to pay for that so does that count as a benefit? I get discounts with my cell phone company and at the gym but only because the companies decide to give discounts.

The only benefit I get at my job is an unlimited movie pass.
Ironically I rarely get the chance to go and use it. -_-;

My job benefits: free food at the office, a Press ID that has already gotten me into a few nice events. I work in the strange territory between full-time and part-time, so I don't have health insurance or what. Just happy to take care of my health.

Ummm.... Usual dental/health benefits, and there is travel insurance included...
Hardware at cost or just a little above.. (picked up a Quad-core CPU for the new windows box I just finished putting together)

Oh, and all sorts of abuse and crap from the boss and customers on a daily basis... ^^;

I get free Quiznos sandwiches everyday!

Mechanical Engineer/Traveling Kamen Rider/Dollfie Dream Hunter
http://tcwenterprise.com/wordpress/
The only job benefit I think worth mentioning is occasionally worrying about my job being replaced in china, other than that, it's just standard issue 401k, profit sharing, etc. Not even worth mentioning in the face of SAFS.
Half Engineer, Half Student, All Robot
http://discombobulatedyouth.blogspot.com/
Outsourcing sucks.
A great employer plan would be to have a plan where you deposit some money from your pre-tax salary and they would buy a random figure and send it to you every month. It's kind of like SAFS since it's random. And you're not really paying for it since it's from your pre-tax salary.
Mechanical Engineer/Traveling Kamen Rider/Dollfie Dream Hunter
http://tcwenterprise.com/wordpress/
Outsourcing sucks because there is a huge pool of people out there in developing countries that are willing to work for less since they have a lower standard of living, there is nothing to stop it, until then, we will just have to bare it out.
Technical Account Manager
http://howdoyoufigure.wordpress.com
I think the biggest benefit about working at Microsoft are the non-tangibles, such as the health insurance. Practically everything is covered by insurance, from regular doctor visits, to dental, to eye exams, and prescriptions. If you have a family and kids, this adds up to a huge sum of money that isn't spent on medical bills.
There are also things like the company store for software, swag, and games. Also, there are tremendous training opportunities. We get all of our Microsoft Certification exams for free (i.e. going towards MCSA, MCSE, MCITP) and are often encouraged to expand our horizons. Being out in the field, I'm getting sent to a yearly technical briefing event at the end of July. It's like TechEd for the public, but for employees. They'll present all sorts of stuff, most of which is not available to the general public. Oh, and there's a huge attendee party with food, entertainment, and copious amounts of alcohol.
Best of all, however, I get a nice paycheck that allows me to buy toys. That's got to be the best benefit of all!
Technical Account Manager
http://howdoyoufigure.wordpress.com
Oh, also forgot to mention the interesting discounts we get with many of our partners. I get a special rate on my cell and data plan and 50% off all cell phone accessories from ATT. We qualify for special pricing for several auto manufacturers (bought my Mazda at invoice price, no questions asked), several computer manufacturers (Dell, Lenovo, ASUS, just to name a few), and random places around town.
The other benefit that I left out is that I don't have to get dressed up to go to work. In the summer, it's t-shirt or polo and shorts, when it's a bit cooler, it's t-shirt and jeans. Save a lot from having to buy fancy suits and dry cleaning...
Half Engineer, Half Student, All Robot
http://discombobulatedyouth.blogspot.com/
+1 on the no dress code part. Though, occasionally it feels kind of awkward to walk into a meeting in flip-flops, shorts, and a t-shirt while everyone else is wearing a polo, khaki's, and shoes especially with people two/three levels above. Only a little. :)
Technical Account Manager

Kinda miss my previous company's extra benefits like free & discounts on satellite tv services, weekly movies premiere passes, sometimes concerts & shows passes, and celebrities & world tour in the office! That was in the broadcast industry. The only extra benefits I can think of in the current company is we get plenty of free magazines & newspapers - we're press.
Me dun quite hate working for the medias - get lotsa first hand news and rumours, and that's the best part. Of course, I wouldn't mind working surrounded by moe-moe stuff either. ^^

For me it varies. Since it's a rather small company I work at. The boss and I usually go out and get something different for every year. I was rather shocked to receive a Sony Bravia 1000W Surround system last year around Christmas...
Other than that, plenty of free food. ^^
Random person, with random hobbies.

Benefits... I can work from home. Or from the train. Or from the pool. Or from Mars (if I don't mind the 8 minute ping times).
But that's about it. Other than the fact that I do what I enjoy till I pick up a proper job. ^^;;
Marketing Engineer
My company gives me food/shopping cards for department stores in Beijing. Every month it varies; I had once 30% discount on airplane tickets, sometimes they give some expensive alcohol. Next to my salary i get some refund for my apartment rent and lots of free dinners :-)

Receiving all that free stuff must be a drag, having to spend so much time opening boxes, putting them away and throwing out the packaging.

Other than what is typical when working for a large company (Insureance, retirement, etc), nothing I take advantage of as it's nothing I need to use. I'd prefer the free fig benefit that most of the ones at my job.
Guess
I get nothing ==;

Yay! for 5% off of groceries at my store. But then you remember that tax is 6% and you sob a little on the inside.

I would love to have benefits like those. I hope I get some decent benefits when I start working.
Stocker
I'm farily certain my employer offers the 3 usual: medical, dental and vision. Though, to qualify for those you have to work a certain amount of hours in a given time frame. Simply being classified as full time doesn't cut it. If you're short a few hours, you don't qualify. There's also 401k and a measly 5% discount. The discount doesn't even apply to all items and it's still usually cheaper just to shop at Walmart
Stocker
I forgot to mention there's also paid vaction. The amount of vaction time you get depends on how many years you have worked. I currently get 3 weeks paid vacation.

Free public transportation. Discounts on tickets for all sorts of stuff. Discounts for a bunch of stores. The biggest benefit is access to the junk pile. After testing sorts out the failed equipment from the working equipment, some of the failed equipment may actually still function minus a couple of features. You just need to sort through them. Access to thousands of dollars of networking equipment is pretty cool. :)
