Pros

Global and well renowned imaging brand with wide ranging product & services portfolio. Great and well designed (quality/environmental/safety) products. Employee discount on range of Canon products. Fantastic UK Head Office (Reigate) facilities and grounds.

Cons

Removal of final salary pensions scheme. Salary not competitive with other (like for like) roles. Some staff who carry out limited business travel are given company cars (or allowance). Due to size of organisation often slow for initiatives/policies to be implemented or moved forwards.
