Pros

Sony gave me good work. My manager was ryosei takagi.we use to get challenging and interesting work from sony tokyo. They use to give good bonus for good work.

Cons

When i was leaving sony. They drugged me and tortured psychologically. I went for treatment. They said, "leaving sony is almost dying". There was huge politics. Salary is not a big thing. They destroyed my future.
