      Not recommended - Engineer Philips Employee Review

      Pros

      401K match, competitive salary, company store employee discount.

      Cons

      The most chaotic and reactive place I've seen in 20 years career. Management routinely ignores technical advice and creates one avoidable crisis after another. Too many thin skin divas who cannot handle the truth, continuously trying to drive technical decisions without any technical knowledge. Engineers are not valued, treated as a service organization, 60% is paperwork driven by technically challenged individuals who get a kick of wasting engineer's time making them change the font size in a document.

      Pros

      The people in non- upper management roles that work there are fantastic. Great sense of community onsite and the culture champions are consistently looking for ways to make work life better.

      Cons

      Very poor communication on the strategy for the business unit. Leadership publicly promotes innovation and new ideas to be presented but then those ideas are shot down or penalized in private by current upper management. The business unit leadership says that don't want excuses for project delays but will then decide to do 3 major layoffs in the first two quarters with no transition plan, no support for gap in resources and no expectations to delayed progress.
