Pros

Good place for young staff to learn how a big compay operate the business, unless you join TV team, which is hopeless. Always new products come out, growth opportunity for aggressive people.

Cons

Top management is lack of long term vision and incapable to take the responsibility as a leader. Keep blaming while do not trust subordinates. Same as other big companies, political is very where.

Pros

It is always a plus working at a company that creates products that save lives and improve the quality of life for others. Philips takes good care of its employees, with many opportunities for conferences, field visits, and other non-work educational experiences. The work is challenging and requires a high level of adaptability, which keeps everyone sharp.

Cons

The employee review system can be intimidating. A piece of advice I have received from seasoned employees: (to paraphrase) They won't make a software engineer a manager. Especially not a good one.
