Pros

Great benefits Great products Market leader Chance to work with latest technology as they transform their business

Cons

Company seems lost. No company culture to speak of. I was there for a year and was part of 2 reorgs. My initial group was disbanded after 6 months, and 6 months later my second group was shuffled; one third of us were laid off. Since the time we left, I have learned that more management re-shuffling has occurred. The IT department seems to be in disarray, and morale is low.

Pros

Nice Benefits, energetic ppl and nice location views . Training, Sabbatical and holiday programs are best in their own class

Cons

EIS Infrastructure division. It completely runs opposite to what Autodesk does. Too much of legacy minded thoughts, failure to adapt Saas based mind set which company already even though heavily expensed. Internal IT is fragile. One would expect to have complete CMDB , Full monitoring,Automated break fixes but still lot manual and still lot of excels and emails. Reason weak skilled admins and poor Management.
