Pros

People are great however since the company goes through a ton of reorganizations it can get frustrating having your manager change so often. Good benefits Time away from work is easy to schedule

Cons

Management can sometimes hide information The org chart is ridiculous, I've never worked for a company I feel like I'm a peon just because of the org chart.

Business Outlook

Pros

Autodesk is a strong company and established leader in the design field. They have a great diversity of exciting products in a field that is hard for other companies to break into. The compensation and benefits package is good.

Cons

Complex business processes cost the company and slow them down. Management could be stronger. Innovation in business systems is behind the technology curve.
