I used to work for a Japanese company in the U.S., and found it a bit difficult to adapt myself with the Japanese organizational culture. As a woman, sometimes it was very challenging to speak my mind during the meeting, as well as to make a quick decision on my project. I actually did that all the time, but my Japanese boss (male) always told me to slow down my decision making.
Yes, Japanese, in general, are not willing to take risks. I don't know why, but they would just wait until sunset, and slowly make a decision.
Another potential issue you would face is that Japanese don't normally speak their mind, especially when it comes to an issue that could make them loose face. Not speaking frankly makes me and other American colleagues feel very uncomfortable.
On the other hand, there are quite a number of Japanese folks who graduated in the U.S., and have adopted American culture in a way that they can apply to American working culture. These people, therefore, were not hard to deal with, and quite nice to get to work with.
I was one of the few women, and the only one non-Japanese, non-American in that company. I didn't feel anything wrong with my nationality at all. Both my American and Japanese colleagues respected me they way they should, and so did I.
Good luck with your decision though!
