Pros

PTO is good once you include shutdowns and holidays. Beautiful campus.

Cons

Executive leadership is clueless as to what the level beneath them actual knows or accomplishes. Most managers are the weakest links in their groups. They are the least qualified and couldn’t compete with their employees in another environment. They are pushing a diversity and inclusion program, but look at their leadership levels (enough said). They do the bare minimum to try to look good. Fair practices are not the norm, unless you are friends or family of the people who keep promoting themselves. a new president comes from another country every so many years and depends on the corrupted leadership, so nothing ever changes. If looking for good practices and careeer opportunities, choose Canon until something else comes along much better.

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)
