Great company but some cons..

Pros

Benefits: Unlimited PTO for salary employees, 401K matching, free lunches in the SF office on Mondays and Fridays (although you need to line up 30min before 12pm or they run out of food), free healthy snacks and coffee, gym onsite, wellness allowance of $500. Great company mission and empathetic leadership team, very proud to say I work for Autodesk.

Cons

Salary pay is way below market rate for SF, and it is very difficult to move up in the company. Many of the managers, directors, and VPs have been there for years and will continue to stay, so it is extremely difficult to grow. Another con is the constant reorgs. I have had 6 managers in the past three years - which may be another reason why it is so difficult to grow.

Pros

Great product.. and good work life balanced with good learning ops

Cons

I was on an extremely political team.. you’d be lucky if one person did not stab you in the back or try to take your credit. Honestly the work was too easy and I was used to working in startup and consulting environments and it was crazy that people were fighting over their projects so they had something to show for. Middle manager has no clue how to do anything and once asked me to put slide deck on the value of my tasks (that she assigned me) so she can present to her manager. Credit stealing is rampant. It was a shame because I loved the product.
