Pros

Good work content - Depends a lot on the group you join and your boss though. I had both good and bad experiences in the last 7 years.

Cons

Location - It is in the heart of the traffic jam! Office politics - Especially by old-timers with no skills/knowledge! Experience within in Philips decides who is right/wrong and not what is really right/wrong People managers - especially old timers - only care about headcount. If they get their way (and most of the time they do) they would get 9 men to produce a baby in 1 month only to realize that it is not a real baby and then they blame the 9 men for it!

Pros

knowing that a difference is being made, feeling proud of the accomplishment done on a daily basis.

Cons

Leadership is horrible, way to many politics, no work life balance. No future within the company, opportunities are given to those that are not even qualified for the positions. Higher leadership does not acknowledge you.

Hi there, thanks for sharing your thoughts here. Our biggest aim is to improve people's lives by doing the work we do every day, indeed, and we're glad that you're a part of this mission. However, it's unfortunate to hear you don't feel like you have a future within the company and that, in your opinion, it's hard to have a healthy work-life balance at Philips. Giving our people the opportunity to drive their own career at the company and showing them that we understand they have a life outside work too are two of our main objectives when it comes to employees. That's why we'd like for you to know that your feedback won't go unnoticed: our management teams are active on this platform as well. Once again, thanks for the review, and we wish you a pleasant day!
