Pros

Autodesk is a great company as a whole. Many wonderful benefits and people. and some really cool offices. However, you need to be prepared for the fast paced work and change as the norm. You must be a solid collaborator to succeed, regardless of the level of role you are in. If you are in a key city such as San Francisco, Boston, or Portland you should be able to have a long and exciting career.

Cons

Change is exhausting and you can expect to have a lot of managers over your career at Autodesk. It takes a long time to feel grounded upon entering the company. This is normal. Some divisions and team have better onboarding than others. Smaller offices don't get the same attention as the key cities but there are good things happening, just be aware you're not in the elite centers and may need to make an effort to be seen if you are seeking advancement.

Pros

It is in Marin, some manager allow flexibility

Cons

They re-org all the time. I took a lower pay and salary when I started because I switched industries, three months later I was re-orged into my old profession with no input from me and no salary adjustment. It is also a game to get promoted there - you have to work on projects that have nothing to do with your job just to get a promotion.
