I’ve heard how the work culture can be pretty toxic but the amount of thought and care put into every aspect of the experience amazes me. Shame, sony was one of my favorite companies for AV equipment but their newer devices are just not as good as they used to be.

This poor judgement seems to be mostly from the PlayStation decision but I can help to think this is a sign overall company culture shift.

It’s like the drop in quality at Toyota resulting in defects never heard of before (airbag defects, melting wing mirors, faulty screens) or the first Honda I’ve ever owned where the engine had a defect affecting multiple cars in their lineup making it dump gas into the oil.
