Pros

Mostly good people who work together in local office.

Cons

EVERYTHING is done as dictated by people (mostly the Japanese corporate leadership) at Canon USA in NY. Schedule is 9-5 with one hour lunch - if you want any variation, it has to be approved by NY.

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)
