Pros

Excellent product with large fan base. Skilled engineering organization. New technology roadmap looks solid.

Cons

Marketing department is in disarray with poor leadership and ridiculously high turnover. Product marketing jobs at this location are operations oriented (read - engineering change orders and packaging revisions); all business, revenue planning, channel and customer activity is handled at the local country level. Distance from corporate HQ limits interaction with peers, and all international travel is in coach (long and awful flights to NL). If you're not a Dutch man under the age of 35, your opportunities for advancement in Philips global is very limited.

Pros

Salary is good if you can take the toxicity

Cons

Bosses will throw you under the bus to protect themselves. Management is micro and inconsistent. Often creating conflicting policies and procedures on the fly. Service Now, the application used for support tickets is a complete disaster
