          Pros

          Benefits, W/L Balance are great

          Cons

          The company isn't very consolidated and isn't very forward-thinking in technology. If you need to work across divisions within Sony, there's no good organizational structure and a lot of your success will come from personal connections with who you work with, rather than processes or structures.

                Pros

                The team outside of Acquisition is very kind and admirable.

                Cons

                Management and supervisors were terrible. Throughout my three months of employment I was there, I asked for access to specific systems which I needed as part of my daily responsibilities and management put in hardly any effort to assist me in getting access. Additionally, they were incredibly passive aggressive when asking for help. Each time I would ask my manager for help, she would make a deep sigh, showing her annoyance towards helping me complete my job effectively. Additionally, the work was confusing, the entire system's organization was impossible to navigate, and far too many responsibilities were placed on me without sufficient training. Additionally, the pay is absolutely awful, and there is no room for growth. The person who I took over left the company for another company once she realized that there would be no potential for growth in the position, and I realized the same. Overall, terrible management ruined the experience for me, and I am very glad to no longer work for Sony Miami.

                      This is a Post-Intervew question, and I realize this is as individual as getting a haircut or fixing a cup of coffee. I had an interview with a medical office Wensday and I think it went pretty well. No, big hiccups on my end aside from getting tougne tied for a minute. I felt as though I had a good vibe with the interviewer. How do you after action an interview? (The reason I'm asking is I've been job hunting for near on 3 years now and I'm pretty frustrated with the situation.)

                      Has anyone have any experience and or has received any feedback on the hiring process background investigation with Peraton? I currently have a Secret Clearance so they are giving me Top Secret Clearance. I received the job offered with the condition of employment until the background is complete however I have not have heard anything from the background Investigator, know that usually it takes time and it can take even months, however like I have stated I already have a Secret Clearance

                      Listened to the debate tonight. Imagine going to an interview and behaving that way. Criticizing the other candidates, trying to find fault in other candidates and interrupting the hiring manager. Would that work???
