Pros

Great and motivated people, very hard workers.

Cons

Company takes advantage of loyalty of workers. No pay raises, quotas are double that of nearest competitor. Management can harass employees without penalty to them. Employee is always the problem, never management. No real advancement opportunities, you are told what to do. They will place people on a plan to demotivate them, chastise them, demote them. No more positive reinforcement all negative. Will not allow for exit interviews for fear of what they would find out about how people are treated by managers, etc. Overall morale has been diving down for last 6-7 years. Managers can provide terrible reviews for employees based on what they hear from others. Customer's are stating that Philips is no different than other companies, with their arrogance, turnover of sales people, etc.

Pros

The people in non- upper management roles that work there are fantastic. Great sense of community onsite and the culture champions are consistently looking for ways to make work life better.

Cons

Very poor communication on the strategy for the business unit. Leadership publicly promotes innovation and new ideas to be presented but then those ideas are shot down or penalized in private by current upper management. The business unit leadership says that don't want excuses for project delays but will then decide to do 3 major layoffs in the first two quarters with no transition plan, no support for gap in resources and no expectations to delayed progress.
