Pros

The benefits are some of the best in the industry. Benefits include 12 paid holidays, (usually an additional 5 during the Christmas period), 2 weeks paid vacation and 10 sick days per year to start (they get better the longer you stay), Medical, Dental, Vision and Life Insurance options, in addition to 401k. They host opportunities to see movies for free, have a gym on site, and have other events that are super cool to attend. In addition they have a relatively decent bonus structure for support staff.

Cons

Depending on when you are hired, salary is competitive. Nepotism is a thing here. Managers and Executives rely heavily on support staff, but generally show little to no appreciation. They expect loyalty, but they themselves are not loyal. There are a lot of egos, and being able to maneuver in the day-to-day can prove frustrating or difficult. HR is useless, as complaints are first funnelled through GC or other executives. Sony protects their executives first, always. Depending on the department, you can find yourself working in an extremely hostile environment.

Pros

- began work with an amazing team and culture - exposure to major IP and high-profile campaigns - some genuinely talented and passionate colleagues - fast-paced environment that builds skills quickly - healthcare is decent - some fun on-lot perks

Cons

- poor work/life balance exceptions from SPTV lower and upper management - unmanageable workload left little room for the collaboration and meeting engagement leadership expected - upper management changes resulted in reactive restructuring with little regard for team culture or continuity - inconsistent management: some leaders failed to empower or advocate for their teams - clear office politics which interfere with business decisions - quick burnout when management fails to course-correct workload - leadership set workloads based on personal work style rather than sustainable team norms - little to no growth opportunities - 4 days in office is excessive and unnecessary
