Treatment and Remuneration Systems
Personnel system that serves as a foundation for maximization of human resource value
We have developed a system to appropriately evaluate and reward the value of human resources in order to secure and retain excellent human resources in the highly competitive IT human resources market, as well as to foster a corporate culture in which each and every employee can set high goals and take on challenges with enthusiasm, and enable employees to continue to grow by making the most of their abilities.
Our human resources system is built on a dual ladder framework aligned with employees’ career paths. The Company has established two distinct career ladder: the “GM Positions” for management and executive personnel who drive business growth, and the “Specialists” for professional talent whose specialization and achievements are dynamically evaluated. Each ladder is designed to provide development opportunities and compensation aligned with the expected roles. We are working to create an environment in which diverse talent can engage in skill development and grow autonomously.
Furthermore, to secure and develop top talent with high market value who contribute to business growth, we provide a certification allowance to individuals who have attained higher levels in the IT Skill Level Assessment. In addition, we have introduced the “ADV Positions,” which offers compensation packages exceeding ¥30 million annually, as part of our strategic talent expansion efforts.
To further enhance talent acquisition and employee engagement, we have implemented significant compensation increases over the past two years. In July 2024, we raised the Company-wide average compensation level by 6.1%, with an average increase of up to approximately 10% depending on job grade. In July 2025, we increased monthly salaries by an average of ¥15,000 across the Company, resulting in an overall average compensation increase of 5.2% when combined with salary raises linked to promotions and performance evaluations. Additionally, we raised the starting monthly salary for new graduates by ¥10,000.
Looking ahead, we will continue to evolve our human resources system to adapt to the rapidly changing business environment by designing flexible compensation structures aligned with business strategies and market value, and by encouraging employees to take on higher-level roles.
