Pros

- Talented, hard-working peers who care about their work - Opportunities to learn - Brand reputation can open doors

Cons

- The leadership culture is toxic and deeply rooted - Bullying and gaslighting is tolerated - Feedback is dismissed or used against you, and psychological safety is nonexistent! - High turnover, poor morale, and burnout are normalized - HR is complicit. Concerns are swept under the rug

Thank you for telling about the time you have worked for our company. We are very sorry to hear that your experience, with the management in particular, has not been positive by far and that you have observed bullying, gaslighting and other concerning behavior. It is also worrying to hear that you did not feel heard / supported by the Human Resources team. Needless to say that the culture you describe definitely is not consistent with our commitment to creating a healthy workplace where all our employees feel comfortable and are treated fairly and respectfully. We would like to encourage you to share more details about your time with us via our Ethics line, which is also available to people that are no longer working with us, so this can be thoroughly investigated: https://secure.ethicspoint.eu/domain/media/en/gui/100518/index.html. Please know that your experience is not typical and we take serious note. Thank you once again for this review. We wish you all the best moving forward.

Pros

Great learning opportunity, good recognitions across the teams. Flexibility to work from home depending on work.

Cons

Process and documentation oriented. Too much documentation for everything. Lot of quality control. Less hike, depending on team and project. Tight deadlines. Unrealistic annual targets to make more profit to stay in market. Poor work life balance and also depends on team and project.

Thank you for taking the time to share the aspects you're satisfied with at Philips in Bengaluru and to share what you'd like to see changed. It's nice to hear that you consider the learning opportunities and the option to work from home a plus. Of course, we find it a pity to hear that it's difficult for you to maintain a good work/life balance, that the salary increase isn't meeting your expectations and that you think too much focus lies on processes and documentation. We're always striving for improvement, also as employer, and will make sure that your points of feedback are noted. We hope that, if you haven't done this yet, we can encourage you to schedule a meeting with your manager and/or HR representative, to see what changes can be made to ensure a healthier work/life balance. Thank you again for writing this review. We wish you all the best from this point forward.
