      It's a daily struggle to stay positive.

      Pros

      The benefits are just ok.

      Cons

      No support from management. You are basically on your own. There is a serious morale problem due to recent cutbacks in staff and employees are worried about another layoff. Employees have a little too much on their plates to do an exceptional job, which is the minimum requirement. Nearly everything has to be done yourself in order to get things done correctly.

      Pros

      1. If you love the technology (either PCs or consumer electronics), employees get to see products in the pipeline and use products that have just been released. 2. There is a good group dynamic at the company 3. The company does a good job retaining its employees and identifying new roles and opportunities for them

      Cons

      1. The office is located in Markham 2. It is a Japanese-owned subsidiary that has little control over its destiny with minimal resources 3. The food at the on-site cafeteria is okay (at best)

      Pros

      If you want to be in a 100% Japanese environment and are looking for a great learning experience, Toshiba is a great place. Most foreign employees are contractors, and the few that are full employees are from India, China, Indonesia, Thailand, etc., so Western Europeans and Americans stand out. There is quite a lot of pride in working for a large conglomerate, and outsiders are impressed when they hear that you worked for Toshiba.

      Cons

      Management is unsupportive at best and downright asinine at worst. Japanese corporate practices are the norm here: endless meetings without clear agendas and decisions made; political maneuvering; an inflexible mindset towards new technologies and practices; and general inefficiency. President Nishida is doing more to improve Toshiba as a company but there is still much left to do.
