Pros

Amazing brand, brilliant company to work for overall and driving culture for change and impacting the world through imaging and solutions for digitization.

Cons

Too much leniency for certain senior managers (especially in emerging markets) to disregard core company values in terms of human capital, respect and recognition, making very valuable people who believe in Canon, leave and get disillusioned based on petty personal differences.

They are well-known and look good on a CV

Cons

They are trying but failing to move away from silo working. The company cultivates a culture of 'cliques' - it is difficult to be heard or valued
