Poor Management

Quality systems engineer

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Decent healthcare benefits and good 401k matching offered

Cons

Poor leadership and management, specifically in Image Guided Therapy Devices. With Medical Devices, quality should be of utmost priority but there is a lot of corners being cut to meet financial goals from the top management. Tons of turnover in leadership as well

Thank you for your review. We regret that the time you've been working for our company in Plymouth hasn't been positive by far and are very sorry to hear how you feel towards our management in particular. We place the customer first and attach great importance to delivering save, effective and reliable products. As your experience doesn't reflect this, and we don't tolerate actions or behaviors that undermine the quality or regulatory compliance of Philips or our products, solutions and services, we encourage you to raise this through a Speak Up concern, so this can be investigated thoroughly (https://secure.ethicspoint.eu/domain/media/en/gui/100518/index.html). We follow-up on all concerns raised. Thank you once more for this review. We wish you all the best from here on out.

Thank you for sharing how you feel to be working at Philips in Singapore. We're glad to hear that you appreciate our company's history, that you're happy with your colleagues and that your experience has also been positive when it comes to the opportunities to learn / grow. It’s unfortunate to hear that our internal structure and processes didn’t have a positive influence on your overall sentiment. We of course want our employees to get work done in an efficient matter; procedures and regulations shouldn't hinder progress or cause unnecessary delays. Your feedback is valuable to us and has been noted, but if you feel the need to further discuss this, then please feel free to schedule a meeting with your (HR) manager, to identify ways to optimize ease of work. Thank you again for saying a few words about your experience thus far. Wishing you all the best moving forward.
