Pros

Just like at any other large company, if you have a great boss and a great team then you are set. They pay average. There are many smart people here who will challenge you. You will have the opportunity to work with a global team.

Cons

If you aren't then you should heed warning. If your VP is in another city then insist on visiting often- you can be out of sight/ out of mind. PMMs are often overloaded. There is no feature overlap/ portfolio rationalization. If we see Adobe being successful at suites then we have a mandate to immediately start selling suite. It feels like a stale software company. IMHO the company is way too polite- colleagues don't challenge one another enough.

Pros

Autodesk has, hands down, one of the warmest and most supportive corporate cultures I’ve ever experienced. From day one, people were welcoming, respectful, kind, and genuinely available to help. Even as a contract worker, I never felt like an outsider. I felt included, trusted, and treated like part of the team. The marketing team was an incredible group: collaborative, smart, generous with their time, and always willing to answer questions. Autodesk also has a true teaching culture. You never feel silly for asking questions, and there is a clear willingness across teams to help people learn, improve, and succeed. Operationally, the company was also impressively efficient. The technology, meeting tools, scheduling systems, and general workflows made it easy to connect with people, set appointments, collaborate, and keep work moving without unnecessary friction. Overall, Autodesk set the bar for what a healthy corporate culture can feel like: organized, human, respectful, inclusive, and genuinely collaborative. Pros: Warm culture, helpful people, strong tools and technology, respectful teams, inclusive environment, great marketing organization.

Cons

As a contractor, I only wish the experience had been longer.
