Pros

Located on the Sony lot, fun coworkers, amazing perks, great benefits, competitive pay structure. It started off with a great work life balance which quickly changed due to understaffing and horrible project management. Started as a place where everyone loved what they did and changed seemingly overnight. A lot of changes within my team and instead of handling them with care, I felt we were all on a sinking ship that only got worse.

Cons

Leaders who don’t care, disorganized processes that are outdated, favoritism, money being a motivator over work culture, making some people work more than others (uneven work division), and cutting some amazing benefits due to budget.
