Pros

Flexibility & work life balance. Office environment great & money spent on having the most cutting edge technology, whilst making hundreds redundant each year. The talented staff that keep the company afloat are treated terribly.

Cons

No development or training, no promotion opportunities. No trust whatsoever in management,. They pay chunks of staff money to leave quietly rather than make a legal claim! Unethical place to work. Claims to be one of the top places to work, amazing when they continually get rid of talented staff.

Pros

The individual contributors, your peers you work with day in and day out are fantastic people! At the IC level, for the most part, it feels like everyone is in the fight together. The work/life balance is good depending on which business unit/team you're aligned with. The benefits are pretty solid, especially the 6 week sabbatical.

Cons

Autodesk moves at the pace of a snail, very slow to take action on anything. Selling is very difficult with all the undocumented approvals, processes, red tape and very few people are willing to actually help! Leadership doesn't care about the people their decisions impact. Feedback is rarely listened to and acted upon. Pay is terrible compared to competitors in this space. Autodesk has embraced a ton of change over the last few years with new marketing, sales and IT leadership and it shows. They are not shy in showing their desire to be the next Oracle at the expense of their people. They are constantly changing tools, processes, people, roles, you name it so you feel like you're under water constantly. Lipstick on a pig.
