Pros

If you want stability and decent job security and have no goals in life. If fiscal incentive does not entice you.

Cons

Everything, management, leadership, communication., etc. If you have any sort of drive, tenacity, or ambition Canon is not for you. The strick 9 to 5 policy with no flex time is highly unattractive. Along with the slow and bureaucratic way things are done. In addition that japanese culture can be very hard to understand sometimes / most of the time.

Pros

Great company with advanced training opportunities and a global footprint. Taught me everything I needed to know to do my job in a clear and concise manner and also gave me the tools and references to get the work done. Always had support if I needed it on any task. Respected my time and energy. If you love technical work that people actually appreciate this is an amazing gig.

Cons

Long commutes in city traffic combined with median level pay for the job role kind of take away from the great things Canon does in other areas.

Pros

Decent starting pay, excellent experienced pay, excellent medical benefits, great culture, industry leader, best tech, best everything. If you're a quality contributor, you will get plenty of overtime.

Cons

None to really state. High volume markets will require overtime, which is a pro or con depending on your needs.
