Pros
Autodesk is a very friendly, supportive and kind technology company. The pace is picking up, with the new CEO, but it is still a lifestyle company that allows flexibility for families or other life priorities. While it is a company where you can build a long-term career (and many people have, there's a lot of loyalty), there is also a serious issue with lack of diversity at the leadership levels. So, if you're a woman, or minority, you can expect to face many of the same hurdles in furthering your career as you would at other tech companies! There is, however, a lot of change happening in HR and a push for more inclusive hiring practices and management techniques with the promise of shifting this over time. The benefits are excellent.
Cons
Few women or minorities in leadership. Big enough to be beaurocratic, but small enough to find good opportunities to shine and make a difference. Loyalty and career longevity has led to many in leadership having old-school mentalities and not necessarily being agile enough to be inspiring.
