Pros
The Brand is Excellent. The work life balance potential is fantastic.
Cons
The work life balance potential is fantastic. For some it works out and others don't get even close (double standards and ridiculous reasons given especially when you look at the government official legal guidelines), therefore it only happens with the right managers and HR management which is sadly lacking. So slow to market or act on data fact. For a company like Canon it's quite frankly embarrassing, easily losing out massively (most importantly against it's quicker and more agile competitors) by not competing when they could have absolutely been #1 from the start and for years while certain segments were growing which they no longer are... Great to be #1 now but far, far too late to have benefited from it properly. Canon Inc! Most of the above seems to stem from the hands of the Regional companies being tied by what appears to now be a dinosaur of a company rather than a tech leader. If you check the Canon Inc website & look at the R&D it completely makes the above statement seem ridiculous! So if the R&D is real (which it is) and all the patents are up there with the best (which they are), then why on earth are Canon in this position now...?
