      Pros

      Very high focus on the people side. A lot of fun and you will make friends here. Strong Sony feeling and a lot of history. Organization is trying to change to be the brand it once was.

      Cons

      Decisions take a long time. Lot of inefficiency in communication, Tokyo link vs. local execution. Workload increasing.

      It used to be a very good company...

      Pros

      Still produces some cool products (although not best price/quality in the market) The DNA of the company used to be very good, although it has lost in terms of its culture of respect and honour that has protected the brand for many years

      Cons

      Middle management is full of career makers without any concern for the company interests Top management has no clue about the products or services (after Morita-san died) Mushroom shaped and disfunctional organization - it is impossible to restructure it, specially in Japan Re-structuring attempts in Europe are run by amateurs trying to implement harakiri solutions
