      Excellent company with product lines to be proud of, but bogged down by corporate structure

      Pros

      The company has a very wide range of products and services available, which means that the potential that you'll be contributing to the launch or sustainability of popular retail product is very high.

      Cons

      The company is big, slow and has very poor in-business communication - so it takes approval on many levels just to get anything accomplished. The corporate structure is very organized when it comes to management and executives, but at the average employee level there is little to no direction.

      Slow, bloated, cumbersome, yet stable, profitable, supportive

      Pros

      Strong profitable company isn't going anywhere. They do offer good benefits. And you cant forget about the product discounts. Management personally seems to be supportive of employee issues.

      Cons

      There is way to much of a management layer. Sony in San Diego really doesn't even have the ability to make decisions, 90+% of decisions come from Japan. There is all this management in San Diego that add to the length of time for answers, direction, etc. Development gets behind, every manager seems to always want his/her hand in the pot when it comes to "approving" things, but never when it comes to helping with direction for projects. Sony is meeting crazy, there is meetings for everything, maybe 10% being productive. Projects move through development slow and lengthy due to massive process and procedures put on.
