Stop wasting your breath
Can someone please explain the investments below?
What is the DX team? Being in sales I find this group as middleware. They have no knowledge and skill sets and pass all opportunities over to the groups that do the work. I was just on a call the other day and I almost lost the deal because of this... — read more
Another Survey..
I guess it's the time where we are going to be bombarded about the survey for the MSU meeting we all had... Love how they tell you that you have until 1/30...Says they won't collect your details like name and email but we know that's not true..
Next shoe to drop?
Why are company managers traveling to several remote locations this week and next? Are they preparing for more reductions or changes? PAC Northwest locations, Salt Lake, Tempe and Albuquerque sites are all bracing for quick turnaround meetings... — read more

Any rumors about when they'll do more cuts? Its hard to just wait around not knowing what's next.

SOS Melville
I'm done. Can anyone give tips on how to get laid off? I know I'm not the only one that is patiently waiting.
Can somebody please share severance info?
I'm wondering if there'd been any changes.
Burlington Layoffs
Can anybody share details about how this went down? Was it one-on-one calls or a mass Teams invite like the one in July 2024? The intel on this site has been incredible. This should not have surprised anyone, but it’s devastating nonetheless. We... — read more
Layoffs have begun!
They are chopping bodies today folks!!!
Emperors new clothes
Who is brave enough to tell SK even the expats think he’s doing a poor job? It’s been heartbreaking watching the company get dismantled by immature decisions based on desperation. Billions were made off of employees who truly cared about the company... — read more
2026 Kickoff Thread
"Our future is not in the print industry but in semiconductors". Kind of saying the quiet part out loud there.
Cameras on folks!
Yep. turn ur camera on Folks!!
Any good leadership remaining??
Any good leadership remaining? Who are they????
MSU Kickoff
Can anybody explain how Bus Ops. fits under MSU? Makes absolutely no sense. All of these organizational charts and acronyms are just fluff. It’s all smoke and mirrors to divert your attention away from the incompetence.
Not so Anonymous apparently
An entire thread with one taboo word in it was erased! If you missedit, it was UNIONIZE!! The Japan office is but if we pi**ant Americans whisper it...OMG!! So, moral of the story? Big brother/ sister is watching and removing our right to free... — read more

Q1 WTS Kickoff
Wow. How is that man the new leader for a tenured sales organization? Technologically challenged right out of the gate and completely unprepared. Not to mention he made it point to insult those who chose a different path besides college to gain their... — read more
Promotions Make No Sense Once Again
Today's promotions, for the most part, are an embarrassment. Some were well-deserving, and some I totally scratched my head over. So many others, so talented, were left in the darkness. For the life of me, how do they get this wrong each... — read more
BPG Kickoff
Every year brings new changes but am I the only one who is deeply concerned with today’s announcements of how the company will be restructured moving forward? MO spent a lot of time trying to explain how Canon has been a company built on revenue and... — read more
SK Letter
Somebody legitimately wrote this paragraph and thought, "Yeah this makes total sense" and clicked send to the entire company. I get from this that mass layoffs will be coming before the 1/14 meeting (in particular the last line), but who knows. "To... — read more
Bold Predictions for 2026?
So here we are, the third year of the Kobayashi Regime is about to begin. The faux post-COVID “growth” has all but withered up and, if the trend continues, a nose dive should be expected in 2026. In late 2022, Ogawa proclaimed that the company MUST... — read more
NYE in Office...
Not sure how anyone else's location is, but South Jersey is ridiculous.. Considering people are packing up for our location renovations, aimlessly walking around because everyone's work is DONE.. instead of saying "Hey everyone, you can all leave an... — read more
Layoffs today
I already heard first hand today or some mid level management layoffs with a package
Timesheet issues?
Anyone else look at their timesheets today? The holiday hours are only listed at 7 hours each day instead of the standard 7.75 hours. Last week showed 7.75 both days. What's going on?
Song Dedications for 2026
How about we create a list of song dedications to a few of the stellar leaders going into 2026? My choice for Sammi in 2026 is “King Nothing” by Metallica 1996. Give it a listen and see if you think it fits. Other suggestions for the January... — read more
Cookies & Hot Chocolate..
You know, I get they want to do something nice before the holiday but you know what I think everyone would have liked? It would have been nice if they said "Hey, you all can WFH on Wednesday. The fact that there are barely any people in the office... — read more
Canon Layoffs 2026
What are your thoughts about potential Canon layoffs? Any chatter, news or rumors?
Canon's toxic corporate culture isn't just in the US. China is no different!
Canon's declining market share and toxic corporate culture isn't just in the US. China is no different! The Zhuhai and Zhongshan factories have closed. Canon China sales company is laying off employees every year. the CEO and the Japanese managers... — read more

Google Decision Maker(s) Must Resign in Disgrace
Congratulations Canon, every business school in America will be teaching the “Google Disaster of 2026” case study for generations to come. You will join the likes of Enron, the “New Coke” disaster of the 1980’s, and “Rank & Yank” at General Electric... — read more
The King is "visiting"
So rumor has it King Kobi will grace us with his presence next week. And of course we have to look our best, appear professional. Why? He literally zooms through the office in his entourage of sycophants, without a glance, smile, or nod to the ACTUAL... — read more
For Pete’s sake, retire!
I know it’s easy to point fingers when things are not going well but where was our fearless leader 2025? While the ship was sinking in 2025, he was no where to be found. From the start, he took care of all his friends regardless of whether... — read more

Cryptic message
Shall we read between the lines or take some guesses aftet today's communication?
Google Project Team is a Joke
That “Fireside Chat” today was beyond corny and completely useless. I’m sure the 1933 evening radio programs were much more informative and reassuring to the American people. Totally scripted questions which were rehearsed, regurgitated answers that... — read more
