※Employee A is a foreign national.
Everything is summarized in this one sentence.

“Supposed to be a ‘ready-to-use’ engineer… but constant bugs, unusable deliverables. ‘Not just a simple mistake or lack of experience.’ What was the shocking work reality that led the court to rule that ‘dismissal was unavoidable’?” | Bengoshi JP News

Oh, they’re a foreigner lol. Though you do see Japanese people like this sometimes too.

It’s rough that you even have to take it to court for something like this.

This is why mid-career hiring is a gamble. That’s why dispatch agencies make so much money.

Isn’t it their fault for not doing any testing?
13: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/29(Mon) 11:15:03.44 ID:PrN9mkBf0
The company president is probably just as incompetent.
14: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/29(Mon) 11:17:44.48 ID:QdBX7ElI0
If it was such an important project, shouldn’t the higher-ups have checked on the progress more often?

Write this at the beginning first.
When Chinese people say “I can do it,” it actually means “I can’t do it.”

Having certifications is necessary. It doesn’t necessarily measure actual skill, but it shows something about their life plan and way of thinking.
30: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/29(Mon) 11:40:11.46 ID:RetiUsGe0
Why were they trying to keep them on? The president’s behavior is so weird.
41: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/29(Mon) 11:51:01.87 ID:BFJkOQfx0
They should’ve just outsourced it from the start lol. They could’ve even claimed damages if there were delays, but they insisted on in-house development…
50: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/29(Mon) 11:56:39.98 ID:3mF4LILA0
Never take a foreigner’s “I can do it” at face value.
58: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/29(Mon) 12:09:40.95 ID:KNzRaIgT0
Which country are they from, I wonder. China? Korea?
60: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/29(Mon) 12:13:26.75 ID:SROYrc7U0
“I need 411 business days” lmaoooo

If they can’t even do what a free Chappie (ChatGPT) can do, they have no business working in this industry.
82: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/29(Mon) 12:43:32.27 ID:SdlYnxWM0
It’s because the hiring manager couldn’t judge whether they were actually capable or not.
85: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/29(Mon) 12:51:21.60 ID:oPibcKFe0
Unless we make it easier to fire people like in the US, we’re going to get left behind by the rest of the world.
86: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/29(Mon) 12:51:45.68 ID:dFSxiyPN0
Leaving a “newcomer” with experience alone for 2 months and getting zero results is reasonable. You shouldn’t take an SE’s skill sheet at face value anyway.
88: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/29(Mon) 12:58:07.17 ID:kVDgBygd0
A foreigner’s “I can do it” is always an exaggeration. The manager who hired them without checking is the incompetent one.
87: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/29(Mon) 12:54:35.64 ID:GnuX6tfz0
The only saving grace for the company is that they can use this legendary incompetent employee as a running gag for years to come.
92: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/29(Mon) 13:05:20.21 ID:7qkpOwxY0
Complain to the sales department. They’re the ones inflating the resumes.
94: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/29(Mon) 13:07:29.01 ID:eRhnCqNY0
Like that neurosurgeon Takeda-kun, but that type is rarely found among Japanese people.
100: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/29(Mon) 13:16:04.68 ID:90fAkQvc0
>>94
You actually find plenty of them in sales and director roles.
95: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/29(Mon) 13:07:50.40 ID:t+9k9WfD0
I bet they sat in the interview and bragged, “I can do this, I can do that,” with complete confidence.
96: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/29(Mon) 13:09:28.01 ID:7qkpOwxY0
Still, it’s amazing they didn’t do any progress management at all.
104: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/29(Mon) 13:21:43.65 ID:s52dmqDl0
The company that couldn’t see through that is just plain stupid. A simple test would’ve revealed everything lol.
106: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/29(Mon) 13:24:53.37 ID:KFIYOcLz0
Is this a company that doesn’t know the difference between an SE and a programmer? If this is true, they probably only have people like Matsui working there.
110: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/29(Mon) 13:29:16.59 ID:A7KBNOCK0
Copilot, which gives you the perfect final form after 10 tries, looks cute compared to this.
111: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/29(Mon) 13:39:47.71 ID:MAN/Rlfp0
If they were Japanese, I would’ve thought they were neurodivergent, but a foreigner? Write that first next time.
115: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/29(Mon) 13:45:22.58 ID:s8vr3mbe0
I want my company to fire our incompetent staff too.
117: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/29(Mon) 13:48:41.76 ID:JNB1FsoT0
So it means “Test them properly, or you’ll end up in court,” right?
119: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/29(Mon) 13:55:20.44 ID:eo7nklQN0
There are professional salary thieves out there. They’re also pros at living off unemployment insurance.
120: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/29(Mon) 14:00:35.52 ID:TPY+BYyN0
The person who hired them is at fault, so take care of the mess you made. This industry is full of people calling themselves SEs.
121: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/29(Mon) 14:01:36.80 ID:X6GOQ5FA0
Didn’t they use a different person just for the interview?
122: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/29(Mon) 14:02:51.29 ID:XSIYfbPD0
For a court to acknowledge that it was “unavoidable,” they must be truly talented in the worst way possible.
125: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/29(Mon) 14:08:30.46 ID:HOvuDV1v0
Are you kidding me? Elon at X is so capable.
123: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/29(Mon) 14:04:20.00 ID:VAXMNGW90
I wonder if the dismissal would’ve been upheld if it were only about technical ability.
