Pros

- Coworkers (individual contributors) are a joy to work with. They are intelligent, understanding, and helpful. - Autodesk encourages a healthy work-life balance. Office hours are flexible, and as long as you fulfill your responsibilities on time, you are rarely questioned about how much time you spend at work. - Working from home as frequently as one day a week is an accepted norm. - Autodesk provides great health benefits. - All employees are eligible for a 6 week sabbatical (paid time off) every 4 years.

Cons

- Base salaries are less than competitor salaries. - The senior management is not very open about their immediate plans, long-term vision, or anything in-between. The management, in general, tends to have a secretive approach about everything. - Opportunities for promotion, leadership, knowledge growth or general career development are few and far between.
