Is it true that once you hit 10 million yen annual salary in Japan that you won’t get anymore base increase? I got an offer for 7-9 million at Rakuten Japan but not sure how the career progression timeline is. Right now I’m making 95k CAD which this offer doesn’t increase my salary. Is 7-9 million affordable to maintain my Toronto lifestyle in Tokyo? Is it worth to take this offer?

Also consider WLB. I would expect it to be much worse in Japan

That 10M yen thing cannot be true in general. Maybe that's the salary cap for a given firm, level and role, but that can't be nationally true.
