Pros

Mostly good people. Good technology.

Cons

You're a sales rep count on having multiple bosses in territory changes on an annual basis. Every single year the Compensation Plan gets lower and lower and lower. OTE decrease annually, and all the people around you that are trying to support your territory really don't care because they're on salary and could care less. If it's not in their job responsibilities they're not doing it. Unfortunately it wasn't like that 5 years ago which is why we actually kept very good sales people.

Hello there, thank you for your feedback. This definitely is something we value, seeing that you have been with us for a very long time already. Our company is a very large organization that is located in a fast paced market. So we are constantly evolving. That does not necessary mean that you should be afraid of losing your job. We hope to provide everyone within our organization with a stable position, but that being said, we do ask flexibility from our employees as well. And we do offer a lot of opportunities through the Philips University to keep evolving as employee as well. We do hope to keep the great atmosphere within the teams and the talent that they bring to the table as well. We do hope that your prospect for the future could be alleviated a little bit by perhaps talking about it with your managing personnel or perhaps the HR team.

Pros

Good salary, benefits. The products I sold helped improve patient outcomes and lives.

Cons

You may not get to enjoy the good salary and benefits for long unless you are upper, upper management. The middle and lower part of the totem pole are laid off yearly due to a very broken company, regarding product development fails and new product launch fails and FDA recalls. The aforementioned have impacted business negatively and the revenue is down two years in a row. So that means the folks making the mistakes and bad calls in upper management keep their jobs, and the revenue producers and support employees get laid off without thought. The hospitals consider Philips Healthcare very difficult to do business with.
