Pros

The brand Sony will look good on anyone's CV- or maybe not?! I think the managers need to think that this is not the best hiring strategy... retention of staff is also important in an age of information where websites like Glassdoor exist and where people express their opinions to the outside world!

Cons

I think i will not be alone in this- culture is very very. Bad. People will 'defend' their pals, some 'childish/school like' graduates that go around the office flirting with each other!? Others speaking in Japanese constantly (in a UK based office where the spoken language is English). This occurs even during meetings! People are ridiculed openly and infront of others... laughing, eye rolling and all the non sense you may see in a comedy show goes on in this company! I have never seen anything like it! Speechless... good luck to all! Once i raised some views openly i was labelled as completely 'incompetent' / irrespective of 4 interviews that by the same people who made the accusations! If they don't like you they also have a method of pushing you out the door (head first!)
