01Office

Office

Howtelevision is located on the 28th floor of Roppongi Hills. The open-plan design fosters a comfortable and flexible working environment.

Productivity-focused Office Environment

Our office, located on the 28th floor of Roppongi Hills Mori Tower, features a spatial design that can be used for different scenes: focused work, discussions, and refreshment. In addition to a work area with open views, it includes multiple meeting rooms, focus booths, and a lounge where light meals and drinks can be enjoyed.

A work environment that allows employees to choose their location based on their needs fosters both cross-functional collaboration and dedicated individual focus time.

02Culture

Culture

Free and open discussions, and relationships built on mutual respect. The spirit of Howtelevision thrives in our daily work.

An environment where the user-first value is shared across all roles.

  • A user-first approach is consistently applied across all businesses and products.
  • For example, while the Career business operates on a BtoBtoC model, discussions like "Is that truly user-first?" are exchanged daily, even among sales and marketing members responsible for the B-to-B aspect.
  • When collaborating across various functions such as Sales, Marketing, and Product, "user-first" serves as a common language, minimizing communication costs.

Expanding career options, opportunities to take the lead in decision-making, discretion, and potential

  • Regardless of your position, you will think and execute end-to-end, from upstream to downstream. You will have ample opportunities to take a holistic view of the entire business, flexibly expand your role, and make decisions.
    • We welcome individuals who want to pivot and broaden their career scope, achieve significant results, and challenge themselves in more upstream roles for career advancement. This environment has even led some new graduates who joined us to start their own businesses within a few years.
  • We have a system that enables you to rapidly expand your responsibilities if you demonstrate your capabilities after joining. It's common for employees to take on significantly different roles within just a few months of their initial assignment.

A respectful, mature venture company where everyone is aligned towards achieving our mission.

  • While we uphold an ambitious mission, we are not a "glamorous startup" where unrealistic branding takes precedence. Instead, we foster a culture that genuinely confronts reality to achieve its dreams.
    • New hires often comment, "While the ideals are grand, I appreciated the sense of being grounded."
  • We view positions such as manager, department head, and executive not as hierarchical relationships but as roles, fostering an environment of equality and mutual respect.
