Pros

PROS (Why you’d be a serious asset to Canon India) 1. You sell at the right altitude You don’t sell products — you sell outcomes. Canon India needs to win: Government tenders PSU contracts Enterprise imaging, healthcare, security & smart city deals Education & digitization projects You’ve already: Sold to heads of state, ministries, diplomats, and enterprise decision-makers Closed large, complex, multi-stakeholder deals That’s exactly the environment Canon plays in.

Cons

CONS (The real risks, being honest) 1. Canon India can be very hierarchical Your thinking is: Strategic Fast Big-picture Canon India is often: Process heavy Approval driven Risk-averse You may feel: “I can move 10x faster than this system lets me.” That can be frustrating for someone with your momentum.
