      Business not doing well

      Office manager/executive assistant
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Nice co-workers, encouraging middle management with limited empowerment.

      Cons

      Some Top Management still like to micro-manage. Old thinking, want employee to think out of box, avoid new idea or changes or take/steal employee suggested idea become his/her idea. Some management employees want non-executive employee to work more claim less.

      Leadership isn’t great and underpaid

      Marketing specialist

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Some nice people Nice office Subsidised Costa coffee

      Cons

      Constant meetings. Days were full of them, which meant that I couldn’t get any work done. Pay wasn’t great Management has no strategy. It’s a massively declining market and there’s no new strategy to break into any other markets. Canon seems to be blind to this… Redundancies are regular because it’s a failing market with no innovation Loads of restrictions from central which makes it hard to get anything done
