Business Outlook

Pros

Pay and benefits are excellent.

Cons

Unless you know how to work the system, you are not safe from random "reduction in staff". It doesn't matter how hard you work, if the supervisor doesn't like you, you will be on the chopping block.

Pros

Decent 401k, products designed to help patients

Cons

Consistently behind in innovation. Competition will improve and Philips doesn’t. Leadership only driven by KPI and touch points, and doesn’t understand individual strengths and weaknesses for overall market. Growth is by luck and not strategy.
