Pros

Only pros which i could see in last few moth are listed below : 1. Work from home / work for home 2. Flexible timings 3. Unlimited sick leaves etc

Cons

I can write a long essay on it.First of all they are very bad at resource planning. they will hire to for some technical skills say C++ but they will ask you to work on java, C#.People with windows back ground will be asked to work on linux. Software developer will be asked to work on test automation , code coverage etc. No proper planning. No proper work allocation

Philips Response

Hi there, thank you for saying a few words about your current employer. It's a pity to hear that your job at Philips isn't meeting your expectations thus far. If you haven't discussed your points of improvement with your manager yet, then I hope I can encourage you to. Our management is active on this platform as well, so your feedback will be noted. Wishing you all the best!

Pros

- Easy commute if you live north of Seattle/Bellevue - Decent cafeteria - Decent compensation

Cons

- The level of apathy amongst colleagues is off the charts. Many people are simply coasting and collecting a paycheck. When you try to be a team player and pick up the slack, you simply become a target for blame. - Due to the extremely lax "return to office" policy, the office often feels quite empty when there is plenty of work to be done. Being onsite M-F often leads to more work with little support. - There is a culture of public shaming, with several meetings every week dedicated to project leads targeting individuals to make up for their own lack of technical understanding.
