Pros

Nice work culture! No strict hieararchy. If you want to speak to anyone, you can reach anyone anytime.

Cons

Not good work. Core development is not here so if you're looking for core development, look out for other companies. It's more of testing and test case development here.

Pros

Some exciting projects to work on, in a wide variety of areas across the vast number of categories that Sony covers. Great people to work with, have made lots of friends.

Cons

Badly organised as a company, communication across departments and countries is poor. Most of the time there does not appear to be a strategy that we are following or a future plan beyond about a year or so. Every project I've worked on has been aimed at a short term goal without thinking through the long term or knowing how it will strategically work within the broader company
