      So much potential, very little leadership and management support

      Pros

      The mission at Philips is one the keeps people there.

      Cons

      So much opportunity and little investment in employees. They think hosting parties help motivate people but those people are working crazy hours and there is no help in sight. Very little work life balance. Little growth opportunity. Those in leadership do not listen to its employees and what is needed to truly transform.

      Pros

      Great work-life balance, great benefits, and an easy 9-5 pace.

      Cons

      There is a strong emphasis on many good ideas such as lean processes, good quality, teamwork, etc.. However, the execution of such ideas falls flat due to a lack of strong leadership skills from the management. As an example, many projects are run as teams. However, without a project manager, resources become scarce, schedules stretch out, and morale slips as confusion of a lack of roles and responsibilities sets in. High turnover has also been a problem. Constantly losing employees decreases morale, internal knowledge is lost, making it harder for new employees to navigate the corporation, and indicates a wider systemic problem with the culture and business.

      Restructuring Again

      Pros

      I found Philips to be a great employer when it came to the basics. Pay was good, benefits were good, work/life balance was acceptable. I was able to search for opportunities for growth.

      Cons

      Beginning in September of each year - layoffs were always a fear. It began to feel like we were the cast of Survivor - wondering who would get voted off each year. This year I (along with many others) were voted off. A company can only restructure so many times before it loses its way.
