Pros

Benefits are in line with top 10% of the industry

Cons

> A company with 100+ years legacy does not have standard tools/processes yet. You only spend time to reconcile data from one system to another & one manager's perspective to another's. > Attempts to standardize processes & tools lacks conviction & alignment with business priorities, which in itself is very dynamic as far as Philips is concerned. > Management shoves the improvement plans down the throats of the employee's. Seeking clarity gets their wrath. > No holistic employee development plan. > Change implementation is the worst. > Leaders at mid managerial level are not empowered to deliver on the objective they are given. > All of this contribute to a very toxic culture.

Hi there, thank you for sharing your honest thoughts on the time you've worked for our company. We regret to hear that there are many things that you think need to be changed within your former department in Madras, but we highly appreciate it that you've decided to not keep these to yourself. Both as manufacturer and employer we're continuously striving for improvement and we'll definitely make sure to write these down. We hope that you've already found or will soon find a position that is completely to your liking. All the best in your professional career!

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.
