Weekly afterworks and 12 hours work a day will force you to feel like a family wether you like it or not.

Also if your mindset festers they will stop being polite which is way worse.

I took that to mean that if you fail to continue to be productive then your colleagues will cease to be polite to you, is that correct?

It's up for debate how productive Japan's companies really are.

Studies show it is one of the least productive/efficient among developed economies, with all the unnecessary meetings, lack of quick decision-making, and outdated processes.
