Rudest Employees - Blatantly skip meetings or do not respond.

Pros

As an organization Autodesk makes a significant investment in projects to enrich the global community through a focus on sustainability, education, and accessibility. Their product offerings are decent, and their UX is to be commended.

Cons

Rudest set of employees I have ever worked with. Constantly late or do not show up to meetings. No notification. Middle management lie to upper management saying that a project is under way, when no kick off meeting or context has been introduced. Middle management shirk work to jr employees or interns on the basis that "the experience is great for you" whether or not it has any relevance. Employees send urgent emails while on "holiday" or "forced holidays".
