Pros

If you are not ambitious enough, you can get in this company which is quite like a Govt. Job.

Cons

1. Few opportunities to learn 2. Freshers beware. You will be screwed big time and can only waste your time here.

Pros

It's still a great brand to work for despite its flaws and current struggles. Staff discounts on TVs can be very good. There are some very good people amongst the ranks.

Cons

Corporate culture just will not change - very old fashioned, bureaucratic and slow moving. The company cannot decide if its focus is content (supported by hardware) or hardware (supported by content). As such, neither is done as well as it should be. Career progression can be limited due to the vast layers of middle management. Cost-cutting focus leads to numerous rounds of job losses and budget cuts - the best people often take their chance to leave when this happens.
