Pros

- Great work-life balance; - Relatively high salaries; - International travel possibilities; - Amazing training opportunities.

Cons

- Very difficult to track and evaluate performance, which makes the performance review unfair at times; - At some departments, such as Philips Innovation Services the company structure is rather flat, talented people don't grow/promote since they have no place to go within their own company.

Pros

The people in non- upper management roles that work there are fantastic. Great sense of community onsite and the culture champions are consistently looking for ways to make work life better.

Cons

Very poor communication on the strategy for the business unit. Leadership publicly promotes innovation and new ideas to be presented but then those ideas are shot down or penalized in private by current upper management. The business unit leadership says that don't want excuses for project delays but will then decide to do 3 major layoffs in the first two quarters with no transition plan, no support for gap in resources and no expectations to delayed progress.
