Pros

Brand name unlocks tremendous opportunities in music, sports and entertainment spaces. Employees love the brand and want the best for Sony. Friendly office and co-workers become life long friends.

Cons

Company in significant decline. Atmosphere is pressured and does not reward risk. Everyone is stressed out about making the numbers and make knee jerk decisions, constantly changing direction.

Flexible schedule and take vacation any time you want.

Huge layoffs of about 20% of the company have started with the biggest cuts announced 2/26/13. They want to be innovative, but the Electronics CEO is not visionary.
