Autodesk reviews

The opportunities for career growth are not balanced with compensation nor with realistic expectations from their overseas employees. For example: As a global company, meetings are scheduled across time zones. This is normal; however, meetings are frequently scheduled at absurd times, such as 4am or 1am on Saturday night. Software development life cycles are too aggressive because Chinese managers can't say no (and lose face) to their American or European boss. The human resources department is nearly useless. The HR Director is literally never available. She was given the job because she's friends with the Chinese operation manager, not because she's competent. The result is that standard HR requests, such as reimbursement for health care, go unanswered. Why does senior management allow this to happen? Because they're clueless (or don't care) about the operations in Shanghai.

Communication b/t Divisions are not good enough. Resource cross divisions are hard to be reused. Every Division has its own process, development skills, and knowledge sharing is not enough b/t divisions. Employee quality is a big problem after purchase HSL. Salary are Competitive enough compare to the Influence of Autodesk in China.
