Good pay but lacks good culture....

Manager

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

- Market competent pay - Good opportunities to learn and grow - Fuel, Internet reimbursements - Discount on Philips products (but you can find similar or better price on Amazon, Flipkart etc.)

Cons

- You need to pay for everything: Food, Transport, Health Insurance (they are discounted but still need to be paid) - Transport facility is worst considering the office is in Yelahanka and far for most of the people and all they provide is old TT buses. With 3 day mandatory WFO, your back and neck are going to make sure you know the torture of going to office. - You would see, long timers who have made with peace with processes and tortures and they enforce the same to their teams and newcomers. e.g. Even though dress code is smart business casuals as per the HR policy but be prepared your manager asking to come in formals and making comments on your shoes and shirt why they are not formal. - Very slow organization with lots of bureaucracy, politics and unnecessary processes

Thank you for writing this review and for telling about your experience working at Philips in Bengaluru in this level of detail. It's valuable for us to hear what aspects you're content with (like the compensation offered and the learning opportunities) and how you think we could improve as employer. It's a pity to hear that you're not keen on the work culture. Our upper management is also active here on Glassdoor and is reading all reviews. Your suggestion for an anonymous survey + other points of feedback are appreciated and will be noted, but we hope that we can encourage you to also share these with your HR representative, if you haven't done this yet. Thank you again for your review. We wish you all the best from here on out.
