      Hi there, thank you for taking the time to write down some of your experiences at Philips. We regret hearing you're not completely happy working for us and that you feel like higher management is driven by politics. That's not the employer we aim to be, and we can imagine it doesn't make for the ideal work environment. Should you have any concerns regarding the way we conduct our business, we invite you to share this through our independent Ethics Point (https://secure.ethicspoint.eu/domain/media/en/gui/100518/index.html). We wish you all the best with your career!

      Pros

      The people in non- upper management roles that work there are fantastic. Great sense of community onsite and the culture champions are consistently looking for ways to make work life better.

      Cons

      Very poor communication on the strategy for the business unit. Leadership publicly promotes innovation and new ideas to be presented but then those ideas are shot down or penalized in private by current upper management. The business unit leadership says that don't want excuses for project delays but will then decide to do 3 major layoffs in the first two quarters with no transition plan, no support for gap in resources and no expectations to delayed progress.
