A disconnected upper management that rendered the rest of the organization ineffective, led to the erosion of core values and culture, creating a toxic environment

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.
