Sony Employee

"I worked for Sony for seven years. The environment is casual and friendly, and the work is interesting. But, many frustrations abound, from limitations put in place by the IT department, which seems to control everything, to politics played by other managers. Overall, the stress level is low, except when new products launch and we have to scramble. The isolation of different departments and the hoarding of information makes it difficult to get work done."

"Sony is a great company to work for! Currently, Sony is going through many changes internally, causing some slightly negative emotion about Sony. I think these changes are necessary and it will improve Sony's organizational structure as well as product portfolio. I think once Sony realigns itself, it will again be the top branding company because it has both great ideas and hard working intelligent employees. I am very lucky to be a Sony team member."
