It really depends, I'm fairly high up with the company but not on the level as the "Big Wigs" so to speak so I pretty much just learn what they tell me. They find out weeks in advance that way we know what to project for sales and also to have a supply stock if any new bundles / hardware are being sent to stores.
Basically I find out depending on when / if they feel its appropriate and required for me to know. In the case of the 3DS I was aware of the impending cut, but not of the PS3 cut that just happened.
