Go look at their insurance division, music division, movie division and mobile division.

How long can they operate under these conditions before something definitive happens?

Or are they going to post losses and be business as usual forever? I don't get it. How much is too much?

I wonder the same thing too. 7 years of loses would add up to a huge amount of money lost.

Hirai looks a lot older in that photograph than I thought he was

I think Sony stands a chance at being able to bring themselves into profit again, but there are still more steps that need to be taken. I think they seem willing to make those changes though


He's 53 and I think he's aged a lot since he became President and Chief Executive Officer in 2012.

It must be a very stressful job. 

So sad, lay off 20k employees is so stressfull.

yeah, some people actually care when 20 thousand people lose their job, and believe it or not might have some waking hours thinking about it. Things like that are stressful for people who has some sympathy for others.

Incredibly so, he has 146,300 employees relying on him to turn the company around and save their jobs.

At this point I don't know if Sony is salvageable due to how long the previous CEO let things get out of hand. If your company was bleeding so much money on TVs and PCs the plug should have been pulled back then.
