Thank you for taking the time to share the aspects you're content with when it comes to working at Philips in Cambridge and to share how you think we could improve as employer. This is of great value to us. It's good to hear that the compensation offered meets your expectations and that you're keen on your colleagues. That you work very hard, but feel limited when it comes to the options to advance in your career with us, is of course regrettable. We are committed to treating all our people fairly, to make sure they have equal access to opportunities and resources. As you don't experience this, we hope that we can encourage you to share this via our Ethics line. All concerns raised will be followed-up. Our Ethics line can be found here: https://secure.ethicspoint.eu/domain/media/en/gui/100518/index.html. Thank you once again for the review. We wish you all the best moving forward.
