Encouraged internal candidates to move around within the company which is nice, I held 3 different types of jobs over the time I was at Philips.
Decent pay, great benefits, great people.
Cons
Moving away from remote work.
As with any large corporation, there’s a lot of the same ups and downs, and there’s constant layoffs.

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.
