      Poor culture, pathetic "leadership" - Anonymous employee Philips Employee Review

      Pros

      Some training opportunities. Good benefits, but other companies have matched these benefits. Job security-very rarely would they let an employee go.

      Cons

      Stressful and tense political culture. Management not interested in producing quality work. Blame comes freely from managment to employees, but recognition is never given for good work. Management gossips about employees and their "incompetence". Does not promote innovation but is very good at self promotion and inflation of achievements--without substance to back up claims. Generally an unprofessional work environment. Sexism occurs more frequently than it should. There was never any plan for the project leading to lack of focus and direction at all levels.

      Pros

      - Easy commute if you live north of Seattle/Bellevue - Decent cafeteria - Decent compensation

      Cons

      - The level of apathy amongst colleagues is off the charts. Many people are simply coasting and collecting a paycheck. When you try to be a team player and pick up the slack, you simply become a target for blame. - Due to the extremely lax "return to office" policy, the office often feels quite empty when there is plenty of work to be done. Being onsite M-F often leads to more work with little support. - There is a culture of public shaming, with several meetings every week dedicated to project leads targeting individuals to make up for their own lack of technical understanding.
