Pros

Good 401k match, company car, and schedule can be flexible

Cons

Low pay. If you're an FEP engineer, you have no chance of making a decent wage. Philips now believes in giving promotions without pay. Company doesn't value its own employees.

Thank you for writing this review. It is good to hear that you feel that we offer a flexible working environment. We think it is important that our employees are able to live their lives on their terms as well. We are sorry that you feel this way about your salary, we do hope to give our employees a fair compensation at all times. On the other hand it sounds like a lot of other benefits are to your likening, for example the 401k plan and the company car. That being said, we do hope that at least discuss the way you feel about this with your managing team. We definitely understand the importance of providing our talent with the appropriate compensation.

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.
