Pros

Philips ideals are impressive ...maybe at another facility!! I might consider another facility/location but not right now.

Cons

The quality department is full of gossip, back stabbing, politics, and bias/discrimination! Do not recommend working in the Quality department! Waste of my time ... had I known the leadership was like this, I would have avoided the place!!

Pros

I enjoyed a great and rewarding challenge from the company.

Cons

As a material handler, I had the opportunity to work with some great people. Unfortunately there was one person who seemed untouchable by the supervisor.In the end,the perks of the company did not outweigh the negatives of the environment.

Philips Response
