      Working at Autodesk

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval

      Pros

      I've met some of the most talented people ever during my time at Autodesk. It's also given me the opportunity for both lateral and upward career development. And, it really is inspiring to be exposed to the creative and sometimes world-changing things our customers design and make with our software.

      Cons

      Autodesk like many tech companies conducts org changes very frequently, it's not uncommon to shift between groups or find yourself with a new boss every 1-2 years. It's also highly matrixed, so to be successful you need great navigation, collaboration and influencing skills. If neither of those sounds appealing to you, look elsewhere.

      Marketing Run, Not Sales run organization, very siloed

      Specialist sales
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good organization to work for but very siloed with lots of overlays.

      Cons

      Very Siloed, do not listen to sales (I was overruled constantly, Many times I would be told by the CIO the price they were willing to pay (which was doable) but consulting would override a partner's services quote by 200 to 300% - which was a deal breaker. I would be forced into situations where the customer would ask "were you not listening - why did you waste my time".

      Challenging, Fun, but Overly Political

      Senior product manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great people. Great products. Great facilities, perqs, benefits.

      Cons

      Hyper-political environment. Leadership makes questionable decisions in an effort to build their fiefdoms. Lack of attention to existing, money-making products.
