Pros
It's very corporate. Lots of branding, lots of metrics, lots of conference calls. Ricoh makes excellent hardware, but hardware is minimally profitable so it's transitioning to a "services-led" organization. They do a good job serving large customers.
Cons
The company is slow and unresponsive, much of what they sell isn't their own, the metrics include lots of meaningless and incorrect information, and the conference calls are often much more meaningful to the people leading them than the people listening. They don't do a good job of serving small customers, and they don't treat vertical or geographic markets as unique.
