Pros

This is a company trying to change without really committing to changing so basically box ticking. New offices are spectacular. Just a shame that no-one wants the fight of travelling into this terrible location to spend hours sitting at a desk without any collaboration but be on teams calls all day. People are highly dedicated and hardworking, but unable to influence the culture to embrace a shift to the modern world and new markets and approaches to trusting teams who are remote working.

Cons

Morale is exceptionally low now, probably because blame culture is off the scale. Workloads are excessive. Pay is below market averages. The company is effectively in a managed decline. Every year things are squeezed to get as much out of the dying cash cow as possible so budgets are cut to maximise profits as they know they don't have much longer till the core markets are completely gone . Employees are not valued and they leave in their bucketloads either in frustration or exhaustion or because they are made redundant in the latest round of regular cutbacks.

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)
