Pros

Interesting and ever changing projects, work/life balance, clubs and activities, suburban location

Cons

shutting down lab to move it 200 miles away to urban location, details of the move still up in the air, undervalues senior staff, uses the "carrot on a string" method to motivate rather than something tangible, claims to care about staff but actions show otherwise, shoestring budgets, low morale

Pros

People who are passionate about delivering cutting-edge technological innovations for healthcare providers and their patients. A strong history of technological innovation. Strong brand recognition outside the USA. The employees truly care about one another! Even with all the challenges the company faces Philips is a great place to work!!

Cons

The healthcare industry has evolved dramatically over the past six years. Philips was positioned to lead the industry into that evolution however selected to stick with what had worked in the past under the belief the market was not ready and continuing to segment the healthcare portfolio into highly specialized sales channels would generate greater financial returns. Now the industry has consolidated and standardized and evolved beyond Philips's go to market structure and leadership is struggling to re-position its segmented sales channels and repackage its higher cost solutions as economically viable in an industry where "good enough" now still means good health care results.
