Pros
- Great pay and benefits!
- Tons of holidays
- Management is a joy to work for
- People, people, people!! The team is great, full of smart dedicated people!
- Good discounts on Sony things!
- The PlayStation is booming!!
- Occasional travel to San Diego and San Francisco.
Seriously, if you want to have fun doing what you do, what could be more fun than PlayStation, especially in Madison? There are only a handful of companies here that can compete with the Sony for compensation and what would you rather work on? Medical data? Insurance? Construction? No thanks, I’d rather work for PlayStation :)
Cons
- It is a large corporation still, so there are the occasional annoyances that way. But the Madison office is small and mostly insulated from them
Advice to Management
Keep being awesome :)

Application
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at PlayStation (San Mateo, CA) in August 2013.
Interview
Pretty straight forward. Online application, HR phone screening, call with hiring manager, Video presentation to the team based on preset task, offer provided. Took a few weeks from the last task to the offer, but I assumed they were finishing with other candidates too.
