Autodesk reviews

This is the only reason they have four stars from me. They carry a very liberal mindset and indoctrination when it comes to Covid. If you're like that, this would be a pro. But for a company that touts inclusivity, they are not inclusive of those who have chosen a natural route of handling Covid as apposed to the vaccine. They disparage such employees even to the point of threatening employment (although thankfully for me it has only remained as a threat). Such work environment has made it less enjoyable to work here when one thing is touted and a very different thing is practiced, and it is disappointing. Another Con would be their career advancement opportunity really looks at predominately Autodesk experience. So if you get into the wrong department, it becomes a very tedious journey of climbing the proverbial ladder to get anywhere, even if with past experience you are more qualified than half the people of a job "two rungs up."

The politics are sharky----upper managers and the exec team are more focused on looking good than delivering value. The marketing-background CEO got his job by selling Wall Street a cloud and construction industry story that pumped up the stock price. The culture of looking good vs. doing good permeates. Autodesk does not innovate, it grows entirely through acquisition. Acquired teams leave quickly or are shown the door. Comically, the CEO of Autodesk's biggest acquisition ever left in a year and on her LinkedIn claims she was the "VP of Nothing".
