Pros

You work in international teams and have opportunity to travel. Since it's a large company there are a lot of training opportunity. In Sweden management is very open to parental leave, also for fathers.

Cons

The strategy communication from management is weak as is comittment for the overall company goals for the separate units. Management is young and often inexperienced, there are many specialist managers rather than people managers.

Pros

- stable - great name value sayng you work for "SONY" - fairly flexible work hours

Cons

- mediocre compensation and benefits - unmotivating environment with unhappy employees - management is a mess with often times offering little direction - completely controlled by Japan-side - competition within internal groups and little sharing within the same company - all the real exciting action happens in Japan, US groups are just sub-contractors
