Reviews!

The company appreciates their employees so much our reviews are past due! Not that they mean anything because overall is not based on your actual performance it’s based on dept. pet for that year! I love when told, “I have no complaints, you do a... — read more

Like mentioned in previous posts the morale has left the building and what is left are disgruntled, miserable and disillusioned workers that once gave it their all and now couldn’t care less! The quickly taken down post by management yesterday pretty... — read more 

Canon, It’s Time to Wake Up!!!!

The writing is on the wall, and employees see it clearer than ever—Canon is not the company it once was. Morale is at an all-time low. Layoffs happened, workloads increased, and what did leadership do? Nothing to improve employee well-being... — read more

Sunday Night…ugh

Sunday nights used to just mean the weekend was over. Now they mean bracing for another soul-draining week at the office where we have to listen to clueless expats pretend they know how to be leaders. Nothing ki-ls the Sunday scaries like knowing... — read more 

Gotta love it..

The conditions in these offices are ridiculous.. Things are broken, vending machines aren't working, a abundance of ro--h traps, stagnant air from the ventilation system.. The list just goes on and on.. Now let's talk about how unfair the "politics"... — read more 

Observations

I'm sure I'm not the only one that notices this, but the office keeps looking more and more empty every week.. I'm sure this is why people are probably going to be using up all their time before the end of the year because they just can't take being... — read more 

First month in the books for the newly formed CSG

The first month numbers are in the book and having seen the results they are not pretty. I hope this sends a strong message to Sammy (& Pete/Francis/Dan/Rob) that when you make changes that reduce pay it could have a negative impact on your... — read more 

Another Morale Booster..

The best thing I have seen lately is the fact that people are scheduling job interviews and having legit interviews at other companies while in the office.. To say there are no f's given is an understatement... People just want out...

Canon DEI (Diversity, Equity & Inclusion)

Some questions, just curious. Now that this new president Trump, ordered DEI to stop, does that mean Canon will stop publishing these types of email blast about this and that heritage etc? Including the brainwashing ones they try to do in Canon... — read more 

IMM SURVEY

I can’t wait to see how HR or Communications spin the “anonymous survey results” that they sent out to all employees after the 5 hour snoozefest last week. There is no way anyone at the company (other than the executives that presented) responded... — read more 

Who's ready for annual reviews?

Does anyone ever see a pattern when getting reviews? I love how it seems one year it's great, the next, not so much.. You ask questions about "why the sudden change"?, and the answer you will get is "Unfortunately U will never get a great review... — read more

Canon Reduction

Straight from the horse mouth, expect more firing. Sam calls for more reduction for an “agile and robust” company. Sam’s words from the meeting in case you missed it. “Administration; let’s turn to our administration group, exceed and excel. From... — read more 

Never ends..

Now that we have recovered (or not) from that 4.5 hour meeting yesterday, help me understand how ANY of that was beneficial? What President of a company states "I know you all hate me" great way to set the tone to an already miserable situation.. I... — read more 

Karoshi Culture is Real at Canon

The Japanese are notorious for sending employees to their graves early, quite literally. Employees are not valued whatsoever. You are only a widget to enrich Kobayashi and his cronies. You must be willing to march in line, regurgitate the Kool Aid... — read more

Best 3 Options

The best things that could happen right now is for 1.The building to close and you WFH, 2. Another layoff, or 3. Give people the option for a buyout like they did for the people that were blindsided by an early retirement package... It's pretty sad... — read more

Work less, Get paid more ?

The best is being told that other departments are able to work 9-5, take an hour lunch, and get paid the exact same amount of money as they have been for working less hours (35 hrs vs 38.75) How is that even remotely fair ? Let me guess, the answer... — read more

What cr-p, a brainwashing segment to accept change in the company. What complete BS!

Management Hypocrisy

Executives: we must come into the office for at least two days per week (soon to be three) for critical collaboration time, even on a week which has a holiday on a designated office day. Also executives: no show in office on the day after... — read more

Things are so messed up

It really speaks volumes about the situation at Canon when some people are more afraid of keeping their jobs than losing them. For many, the biggest fear is not being laid off, but staying on the job, stuck in an environment that's stressful... — read more 

Canon is a broken system!!

I can speak freely since I was let go a couple of months ago. So here is the way it works at Canon USA. They quickly elevate and promote all Japanese expats who are extremely unqualified into all the leadership roles and have the Americans report... — read more
