Pros

Only pros which i could see in last few moth are listed below : 1. Work from home / work for home 2. Flexible timings 3. Unlimited sick leaves etc

Cons

I can write a long essay on it.First of all they are very bad at resource planning. they will hire to for some technical skills say C++ but they will ask you to work on java, C#.People with windows back ground will be asked to work on linux. Software developer will be asked to work on test automation , code coverage etc. No proper planning. No proper work allocation

Hi there, thank you for saying a few words about your current employer. It's a pity to hear that your job at Philips isn't meeting your expectations thus far. If you haven't discussed your points of improvement with your manager yet, then I hope I can encourage you to. Our management is active on this platform as well, so your feedback will be noted. Wishing you all the best!

Pros

Good pay, free parking, wonderful coworkers, large cubicles, cafeteria.

Cons

Management has unrealistic productivity expectations, and think excessive criticism and threats of termination are a way to get it. This is a high-stress job with a lot of turnover. Recently they lost 1/3 of the experienced staff, and the turnover with newly hired employees is even worse. I wouldn't recommend leaving a job and working here, but if you are unemployed, go for it.

Hello. Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts and feedback here. It's good to read you're working in a nice team and that you feel well-compensated. That said, a healthy workload and environment are important to us, so if you feel there's room for improvement there I'd recommend to reach out to a HR representative about this.
