Pros

Compensation, benefits, and work-life balance

Cons

Company-wise, they don't seem to know what they are doing. Even the most basic of tasks will consume days. Don't expect any team-building. The company clearly states its culture, values, and professional development, yet, management does exactly the opposite. Philips is an "innovation" company, yet the management style is command and control. As a result, negativity and deceit are common and your career will suffer. Public reprimands occur frequently - people routinely referred to as "stupid.."

Pros

Pay and PTO are both reasonable.

Cons

Discriminatory! It’s sick the way I witnessed racism and aggression toward the victims for asking upper management to step in. Intimidation and retaliation is a common issue in multiple departments and has taken over our company’s culture. Inexperienced management, ineffective HR, hostile work environment, I could go on. No room for growth because favoritism is played with the worst teammates.

Thanks for speaking up about your experience at our department in Nashville. It goes without saying that I regret what I'm hearing. Something like this would go against the values of our company. If you feel that Human Resources isn't responding properly, then it might be best to get in touch with our ethics line to discuss the matter further, if you wish to do so: https://secure.ethicspoint.eu/domain/media/en/gui/100518/report.html. I wish you all the best going forward, and thanks again for talking about this.
