Pros

Great employee discount on Canon products, good name on CV, you get to participate to nice events

Cons

Where to start... They don't pay enough for what they ask. Overtime is not paid in any ways and you will definitely work more than stated on your contract. Night shifts required despite technology and overseas team would make it unnecessary. Politics are so bad. If you're not in the click, you're no one. The location is way too far from central London - you can clearly see the talent pool is not as high as London businesses. There is no organisation and standard processes or policies. HR is very biaised and does not protect employees, if anything, is more political than SLT.

Pros

I had a very positive internship experience, Canon really values their interns and lets them do all sorts of special projects. All employees are super kind and I would love to return there full time if there is an opportunity available.

Cons

Must drive to Melville (no train station in walking distance)
