      Good company to work for and a leader in the design field.

      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.

      Autodesk, not perfect but still great place to work!

      Pros

      Autodesk is a great place to work simply because of the people. Folks here are very passionate about their job and it shows in meetings and discussions throughout the day. There's also been a lot of improvement over the past couple years with regards to insight into things that are occurring at the senior management level. This help a lot with eliminating many of the rumors we'd otherwise have and definitely gives us (individual employees) a feeling that our voices are heard and we are indeed part of this organization.

      Cons

      No company is perfect, and Autodesk is no exception. One of the big downfalls of a global company with various divisions is that after a while you begin to feel like you're working with multiple companies inside your company. By that I mean, it's very easy to get lost in your own division (say IT) and completely lose insight and awareness of things going on in other divisions of the company. Sometimes things that go on in Product Development I hear first from outside the company than within. I don't believe the walls are up intentionally but more so just as a custom.

      I used to love working at Autodesk, but not anymore

      Pros

      There are wonderful, smart people working at Autodesk. The benefits are good.

      Cons

      The senior leaders of the company are making bad decisions. They promote the wrong people and keep week leaders around for years. They do not believe in promoting from within, and force people to leave the company to advance their careers. They don't seem to know how to integrate companies they acquire.
