Pros

Discounts on products, a few perks here and there, but overall, if you're a little fish in the company, be prepared to be taken advantage of by the big fish. Little room for advancement unless you are Asian. If you are Asian, come work at Sony Electronics cause you will be upper management in no time at all!

Cons

Long hours of grueling work with little chance of your ideas seeing the light of day. If you do have a good idea or theory, prepare to have it taken away from you so someone in a higher seat of management so they can take all the credit for it. Plus if you come up with a brilliant idea for a patent, prepare to have that taken away from you too and prepare to be under compensated for the patent... like to the tune of a flat rate of $1500. That's it! You won't be collecting royalties, that's for sure!
