Pros

If working in Tokyo, 16 contracted working days a month but will still receive the full JET salary More days off in comparison to other JETs Many things to do in and out of Tokyo

Cons

Desk warming time can get monotonous Having Japanese proficiency will not required for the job is tremendously helpful and therefore I think is an essential when surviving Japan
