      Volcano Corp was great but Philips wasn’t - Manufacturing Supervisor Philips Employee Review

      Pros

      Awesome VP of ops. She came from the line and worked hard to be up the ranks. Older management were all awesome but once Philips integrated their managers and beliefs into volcano people it wasn’t great. It was such an awesome place to work for before the political stuff came on board.

      Cons

      Orig workers were all great people to work with but when Philips mentality came in, they bulldoze the talents out of that building to build in Costa Rica, which had some major re-calls which when we built in the US, there were never a recall.

      Thank you for taking the time to tell us about the 10+ years you've worked for our company as Manufacturing Supervisor. It's regrettable that changes were made within your department that you didn't think were for the better. Our management is active here on Glassdoor as well, so your feedback definitely won't go unnoticed. Take care, and all the best in your professional career!

      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.
