Canon Employee Reviews & Ratings

- attendance/tardiness has big impact on regularization (due to Japanese culture) - provincial rate

Slow career progression limited by year of service

Took 10 years off my life.

more freedom with job would have been better

managers and supervisors make a single group

Slow or almost no career growth

Their salary is below market value

old and very Rigid system Lots of procedures and processes

Offices no longer local to me.l

Nothing to say, a complete frustration

Some people are very cunning and they are not professional . Their approach is not good.

Canon is not at par as per industry for employees remunerations, but then also the culture is too good for work, and because of that here there is very low employee alteration ration, which makes little slow for individual growth.

Management style and mindset old fashion, promotion based on years there and not capabilities, business acumen almost zero, no proper sales strategies for any form of business, don't rock the boat mentality

Did not need the support when needed, was brushed under the carpet and then affected me in the long run.

Due to extremely high information security, the environment can be very constricting. Poor management. Salary progression program is really bad

Yet to join the company yet so I've only got positive things to say so far!

there is less rest time

Complex Service Plans: The variety of service plans offered by the company may be confusing for some customers to navigate, leading to difficulty in selecting the most suitable option for their specific needs and budget.

Pay is adequate. Product offering is going through transition phase.

Slow rate of advancement, a lot of turnover

Tool time in class because only one tool to work on and had four other people in the class. With only 2 weeks could not let everyone have there turn. Tool I worked on in class was not tool I worked on in the field and SW was different in the field.

low salary Slower salary growth

Not many career opportunities .

To much reliance on old technology i.e. Printers, DSLRs all of which is a sinking and dying market. Revenue is going down on an yearly basis

None that I know off

- ... stuck with poor systems and processes - You are expected to work long hours - Company culture is political and does not encourage speed

Salaries need to be higher. Not a good company to balance work and personal life. If you arrive at 9:01AM you are late. You cannot "leave early", you must take personal time. When salaried most companies let you work thru lunch or come in early to leave 30 minutes early. No working from home, but if company is closed due to weather, you are expected to work from home if needed. No official comp day policy for travel. Some managers do not communicate well, and other communication issues levels across the boards. Favoritism

Bogged down by administration. Compensation changes as of late are questionable.

only boomers legacy app pointless work

- Remuneration not competitive - Multiple reporting, sometimes overlapping one another - Top-down approach from HQ makes things rigid

I don't think I have any.

Management are not interested in truly innovating.

Japanese Head Office micro-managing is stifling any innovation, and means everyone is a "Yes" person - everyone is to blame except the Head Office. "Strategy Centre" that delivers no strategy, in fact delivers nothing but cost. Core business in decline and heads fully buried in the sand at the top - decline blamed on Sales for not selling products that are not in demand and are way more expensive than the competition. Very poor decision making with no logic behind it (see UK Head Office move) Regular redundancies (unless you are Japanese) has meant they have lost their best people, and their best chance to turn the business around (not that they would listen to those people), Strategy Centre and Head Office think they know best but are very out of touch, Directors won't say no or challenge. Terrible systems, staff at the bottom end are holding everything together. Poor pay and perks mean they cannot attract the better people.

In 2014 Canon underwent major changes and unfortunately as a result many staff were retrenched, I being one of them. From the time my retrenchment was made known, I was left on my own with no leadership. My manager just stuck me away somewhere and didn't even bother to seek me out on my last day.

Lots of politics Office location a bit far

Feels isolated Low pay Not much youth at the company

There was nothing bad about it.

A bit quiet and small canteen.

Bossing in CBS Prague, very bad politics, mental abuse. Left after the 2 months within a probation period. Very difficult to deal with management.

Too much overtime for the employee

marketing of business products is weak

Doesn’t pay very well, red tapes

None currently but I haven't been here long.

Basic salaries for sales people are well below market standards

Conservative culture and redundant work process.

You have a few opportunities and some time you will need to look another job if you want to earn more money.

Career progression may be slightly slower but stable overall.

stick by the book. slow in decision making. slow to market. hierarchical . less active in cross collab amongst dept.

Sleepless nights become a norm. This competitive and restless environment can really take a toll on your mental health.
