ItemExploring Japanese and American Cultures in the Context of the Workplace(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2021) Baldwin, JoshuaFor my final project I will participate in an internship in Tokyo, Japan at a software company where I can gain experience in my field while learning about what it is like to work in Japan. Japanese culture differs from American culture in many regards, and I will do research about the aspects that are similar and dissimilar, and also conduct interviews with Japanese employees as well as international employees at my company and other software companies in order to hear their experiences with colliding cultures. I will also research specifically about the work culture of Japan and how it differs from America with respect to the concepts of lifetime employment, sābisu zangyō (service overtime work), and karōshi (death from overwork).
