Pros

There is indeed a lot of potential for big things here. There is a group of very talented and passionated people in this company that know how to play as a team when proper direction is provided

Cons

politics can slow down or stop important projects, communication between sites could be much better, Sr management can be in a completely different world sometimes...

Pros

Working at Sony Europe gives me a degree of creative freedom, provided I am proactive in pursuing my goals. I like working with my colleagues in an international environment. The work atmosphere is very good; we have competent management.

Cons

Sony is a rigid corporate structure which could use more communication between the business departments to make it more efficient.

Pros

The people are what make the company. It was fun to head into the office each day and see what would happen next. Really enjoyed the company softball team!

Cons

A few bad apples could really ruin the atmosphere. Cultures sometimes did clash, especially when "traditional" executives from vendors would arrive and forget the "When in Rome" mentality. You have to have a very thick skin at times.
