Pros

Company has a great product

Cons

Don’t not practise what they preach. No core values. Fire you if you report sexual harassment. No loyalty from Company and you are treated as just a number.

Pros

Employee Discounts on DSLR cameras

Cons

Company lost direction many cycles of senior and middle management ago. Significant losses in MFD (CBS) side of the business have resulted in annual redundancies, restructures and severe micromanagement. Systems are held together using band aids and typically those made redundant are the employees with all the intellectual knowledge holding processes together. Poor communication and a customer last approach. How the Camera side of the business runs in complete contrast to the CBS side of the business remains a mystery. Boys club at the top. A company that believes it's logo deserves respect.

Pros

Fixed hours of working - if one wants

Cons

1. No technical growth. Only maintenance type of work. 2. New joinees are mislead. one offer letter will be released, but on day of joining the salary figure is changed. 3. Senior Management is technically very poor - they only want to play politics 4. HR department is not good. All engineers are treated like slaves. 5. Hikes and ratings totally based on how much management likes you - not at all related to work or talent. All process is modified to make fools of engineers.
