      Innovation not requisite given AutoCad market dominance

      Senior product manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Management is a discipline at Autodesk. Leadership training is rigorous and strong, but you should buy into the leadership model if you want to reach Director/above.

      Cons

      Slow to change and make clear decisions because they don’t have much incentive to given the market dominance of several marquee products. Agile with waterfall process mixed in. Politics rampant with senior management always waging territory wars and executives not relying on the right senior managers to influence decision making or achieve objectives. Top talent leaves, and middling talent rises.

      Pros

      Autodesk is a fantastic place to work - employees are treated well, great health benefits and bonuses, and other great perks, and the people are great. Great work-life balance.

      Cons

      No job security - lots of random reorgs and layoffs.

      Would rather pay outside candidates significantly more than internal employees

      Pros

      Great experience selling great products which customers actually need. A chance to gain experience in real consultative sales. Great culture and people. Innovative company.

      Cons

      Internal policies make it almost tough to get promoted. And if you are promoted don't expect more than few percent raise. Compensation is not on par with the market especially in Denver. Benefits were good until the market caught up. They offer a sabbatical every 4 years but only 12 days vacation. Most companies offer 20 so it evens out.
