Business Outlook

Pros

Nice and talented coworkers and teams. I liked my team.

Cons

No WLB & no team building any more on my team. (Sometimes, I had to work from 9am to 12am, 15hrs in total in a day. Note: I was experienced on the team.) More and more work, and tight deadlines. Autodesk prefers not to hire people in the USA, because they want to save money. Many jobs are moved to India, Canada, etc. (Cheaper countries) I was working in Finance before layoffs. There were lots of politics. I saw something happened several times. -- If you got a new manager, be careful that you may be managed out/laid off in a few months by your new manager. Management likes to bring their people/friends into the company. Don't trust the management 100%.

Pros

Good salary for the ones who can negotiate Stock option Great health insurance - hybrid working

Cons

Regional management acts as if they own the company - some people are hired and stick around because they just know a senior director personally- layoffs year over year - they say they offer one of the best salaries and benefits in the country which is not the case
