Pros

Excellent technology on motors, best in the world. Strong balance sheet with virtually no debts. Willing to invest in the best motor design and manufacturing technologies.

Cons

The Japanese management team at the headquarters in Kyoto has no idea on how to management a US or European companies. They asked a lot of questions repeatedly with no understanding of the business. They did not contribute much and just waste a lot of other people's time.
