Canon

Cliques, long hours and beyond expectations

Corporate structure. Not much room for progression unless you know someone that knows someone etc. Sometimes can get a little pushed down with work load with no sight of help or offers to help.

slow to move with the times

Hard to take leaves, underpaid

sometimes the work hours can be longer than usual.

No payrises, no way up the ladder.

Old processes/systems, limited advancement opportunities in the team or between departments, strong company politics within management, subsidiary of US with no say in the way business runs and dependant on US for yearly budget, website, systems etc. In one word, Canon is "big ship that turns slowly" and reacts slow on technology market changes which makes the company not competitive. Salaries are below industry standard and no bonus structure which makes the total compensation even worse.

Can be bureaucratic and slow to make decisions

Maybe the work times and 3 days office

Relocation possibilities… cannot decide the location you will have
