      Pros

      As a big company, plenty of opportunities to learn and the company is willing to give junior staff opportunities.People are generally nice and you can learn from some brilliant people in the company. Steep learning curve, data-driven decision-making.

      Cons

      Long hours, heavy workloads and resistance to change. Management is focused on business outcomes, but not on systems and processes, even though these support business results. Junior staff are doing manual work instead of working on strategic projects. Career development depends on whether your boss is willing to give you opportunities, not embedded within the company culture. Short timelines are the norm to fulfill unreasonable requests from HQ.

      Pros

      Fast paced environment (I liked that). Little micro management if you know what you're doing. They hire great talent, but they do demand your best. I learned more from working at Sony than I did in any other company, regardless of my Bachelor's and Master's degrees.

      Cons

      Could do better (more thorough) training, even though you can ask for coaching at any time. Work under pressure - if you can take it and you are able to do your job, it shouldn't be a problem. Tough, demanding environment at first. Once you get the grasp of it, you'll be the one demanding from others, including your supervisors. Not for the weak. Hard work and thick skin will make you successful and able to enjoy your work.

      Pros

      Wonderful colleagues and work environment. Managers are always helpful and no one cares about what position you hold within the company. They make you feel welcome and appreciated. They are also generous with training opportunities.

      Cons

      There were none while I worked there.
