Business Outlook

Pros

Lots of good knowledgeable friendly people to work with. Good benefits and compensation. A good place to work to gain experience.

Cons

The decision makers are afraid of change and afraid of leading the pack when it comes to implementing new technology into products. Constantly playing catch up to competitors because of this. Also, upper management are only looking out for themselves and no one else.

No longer a good company to work for.

Business Outlook

Pros

If you are an office dweller, this a great company to work for. Great coworkers. Benefits are still good. Provide trainings for most positions.

Cons

Too many cubicle dwellers writing policies for positions they have no clue how they work or operate. Coming out with useless devices for service, ie. CN50. Scraps programs after they are working great and start using a program that has more issues than the previous one. Policies are pushed out even if they are proven to be bad. Philips is trying to punish people for working OT as if they want to work OT and be away from their families.

Worst Mid-Level Management, Great Products to work on

Designer and engineer

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

INNOVATION - Home healthcare is an exciting market with a need for innovation COLLEAGUES - You learn with your colleagues in a collaborative way HELPING PEOPLE - Your work actually helps patient's live better lives

Cons

MANAGEMENT - Midelevel manager recieve NO training and should not be managing people. A design competency should be open to new ideas, this manager has no respect for his team, or his colleagues. He was hired to be a bulldog and he is one. It's a shame he ruins it for everyone. CULTURE - The environment is horrifying CHANGE - They are to slow to adapt to a modern work environment. OPPORTUNITY - It takes years to get promoted and they are penny pinchers. Get the most salary coming in the door.
