Pros

Good quality products. There are some nice people that are competent and willing to help.

Cons

Higher levels of management have ignored the poor Sales leadership that has driven many to quit or take medical leaves. Lead with pressure tactics and constantly chasing and putting out fires. Despite many discussions on how to improve work life balance, process and culture nothing is done about it. Canada is at the mercy of the US or Europe on pretty much everything and many of the team pass the buck vs. trying to challenge the status quo to improve things.

Bad work culture

Pros

Leave policy, Nothing to work.

Cons

Old Technology stack, Legacy product, No new development work. Maintenance and support. Policies are not employee-centric, and HR doesn't have the common sense to talk with employees. Managers and HR don't understand the personal problems of employees. Some times back Philips was a good product development company, but since 2018 they started hiring people from service-based companies and they are spoiling culture. This thing I had heard from a few of my Linked in connections, saw a few reviews on glassdoor and observed while working here. The most important thing I experienced when I was serving a notice period. I strongly do not recommend joining Philips if you are willing to learn and grow in your career and if you are looking for a work-life balance.
