Pros

Atmosphere is low stress, people are great and the comp is decent. Most senior management are Sony lifers and not very brilliant or inspirational. If you like to game and be part of the industry you'll get some great perks in marketing, sales or development.

Cons

Senior managers are yes men and will do anything to keep their cushy positions. The top management is a full time internal PR machine.

Volatile environment with no respect for employees

Pros

There are some very talented people at SNEI in San Diego who work hard to achieve results, believing in doing the right things. The business has challenging goals to achieve and they will likely succeed with proper attention to delivering experiences to beat their competitors. Salary is good and the onsite gym is great. Culture there is fast-paced but allows for company outings to get to know your colleague and just to have a good time.

Cons

The business is volatile and can be crushed easily by their competitors if not done correctly. The turn-over is high and I've seen people let go immediately with no notice and there's a hush-hush attitude about it. Work environment is fierce so you have to be careful whom you may disappoint or else management will easily let you go, I've seen it with my own eyes.

Pros

1. Very stable, consistently increasing business for the last 8 years 2. Many opportunities to work on something interesting 3. Working with a lot of nice and intelligent people

Cons

1. So so health plan: both wife and ex have a better plan than mine 2. Whomever wrote about the Intuit mafia in another comment here is right. 16 people got hired from Intuit in the last 6 months, and, it seems mostly for management positions. 3. Newer management in question doesn't really understand our business, and doesn't listen to old timers. They often act like they understand and know more about the platform than us. 4. Newer management makes a lot of ill conceived decisions that are discouraging real talents, thus increasing loss of tribal knowledge.
