Business Outlook

Pros

People-centric company. Great salary, perks, benefits. The top-down culture is geared towards improving employee relations

Cons

When you have a terrible manager and a great company, is it worth it? When you're manager was as bad as mine, it was not. Cronyism, double standards, constant negative feedback over petty issues all made for a miserable existence at Sony, despite how great the company is. While the company's overall culture was good, the division's culture was one of insecurity and people looking out for themselves, rather than for the team.
