Pros

Benefits are on par with other electronics corps this size. Middle management is good--they try to convey as much information as possible to keep us in the loop. However, since decisions are made on a nationwide scale, much gets lost in translation. Work teams/divisions are kept small and rapport is good.

Cons

It is a huge worldwide corporation. Executive decisions come from all over the United States. So, communication could be better. Salaries could be higher/competitive. For awhile, we were underpaid--they need to keep up with United States salary norms. Professional development is sometimes pushed to the side. Opportunities to tele-commute should be looked at.

Pros

Philips still has good people, meaningful healthcare technology, and a strong brand name. Many employees care deeply about the customers, the products, and doing quality work.

Cons

The company culture has gone downhill. Management has become increasingly reliant on spreadsheet-driven decision making that often has little connection to real field conditions, employee workload, or customer impact. Priorities and goals change constantly, creating a desperate, reactive environment where employees are not given enough time to adjust before leadership shifts direction again. Morale suffers because teams are expected to execute against moving targets while leadership treats unrealistic planning as an execution problem.
