Sony Ericsson Mobile-Global – “Wait until they are back in the green before considering a career with SEMC.”

Pros

The work environment is relaxed, the people are nice, and the locality is great. SE is a global company, however the RTP branch is less than 1000 employees. Pay is competitive and benefits are good. Managers encourage open dialogue, have an "open-door" policy.

Cons

Job security. SEMC is fighting for market share in the United States, and if there are losses reported for several quarters in a row, drastic personnel measures will be taken. In our department (Software), we went though 4 re-orgs in the past year. It seems like they still haven't figured out what's the best way to improve process.
