Pros

Clean building Good toilet facilities Reasonable canteen food (I'm really struggling here!)

Cons

Too many managers with over inflated views of themselves Very dull people Very dull atmosphere Most work is done for vanity or brand protection - no real value driven from Canon Europe to drive leads/sales within the National Sales Organisations across Europe Your face fits or it doesn't - mine did but I couldn't bear the process or politics any longer If you want to be agile and make positive progression, this is not the place for you. If you are a lazy middle manager that is happy to progress from time served, rather than good work and personality, then Canon Europe is the place for you.

Pros

Big name, decent benefits, average salary

Cons

No life balance. Working hours from 7:30 to 22:30 on average. Senior management poor both in terms of business and of soft skills. The culture there is not about work a lot but more about pretend to work a lot by doing no sense hours.
