Pros
People in SIE are extremely talented and fun to work with. The projects are just as interesting as PlayStation games. I got to explore several fields as an SDET, even ML. Managers are very understanding and flexible.
Cons
Not able to sponsor outside US
- Former Employee, more than 3 years★★★★★
Pros
Love the people and the product. Everyone is genuinely passionate around making PlayStation great.
Cons
Compensation and growth. I fought for multiple years for a promotion and was not given it, even though I received the highest mark in performance reviews. Once I did get promoted my salary barely changed and found out that I only made $5k more than one of my direct reports that was a poor performer.
