Pros

Legacy business with solid products in the right areas and a good reputation among customers. Work life balance is excellent with many managers being family oriented Very good pension scheme and healthcare

Cons

- Poor leadership who are inexperienced - Hard work not rewarded promotions given off friendships - No accountability, hardly anyone actually does their job - Declining business with low salaries and budgets - Japanese mentality from the 90s still rife - Little to no social activities - Mass redundancies have caused those who remain to be overworked and underpaid - No career or salary progression whatsoever

Pros

I had a very positive internship experience, Canon really values their interns and lets them do all sorts of special projects. All employees are super kind and I would love to return there full time if there is an opportunity available.

Cons

Must drive to Melville (no train station in walking distance)
