Hello lads, I am halfway through a CS degree. I have great grades and I will be getting an internship soon. Should I move straight to Tokyo, Japan after I get out of school? Or should I work in the US for a bit first? I can speak "intermediate" Japanese but would work for an English speaking company.

What do you know about Japanese corporate culture?

I know that most companies expect you to work a lot but I would only get a job at a company if I could work 50 hours or less a week. Yeah I sound like a princess with all these criteria but I mean if it's available for me to get exactly what I want then I'm gonna do it.

maybe you could work remotely from there for an American company

Do you want to be a jap wagie? I've seen postings on my school's job board for japanese sw companies that were paying 14 canadian rupees/h (less than minimum wage in toronto)

Stay in the US. You'll have to find a unicorn in Japan to have even a semblance of wlb. US salaries on either coast will be insane either way after a few jumps.

So why did you go into CS ? If you want to be a shitty wageslave in Japan you can just go and teach English there. I suspect you got into CS because you thought it would be easier and less humiliating than teaching English but frankly this is just as stupid and pathetic. But what do you expect from a dumb weeb.

stay in the US

No one in Japan will hire you. Don't leave the USA without a job offer unless you want to be homeless before begging the State Dept for a plane ticket back.
