Pros

Large company with opportunity to move within the organization depending on the job function. Very nice campus in Andover with a great cafeteria, on-site gym, convenient store, on-site nurse, mother's room, etc. Ample parking with a few on-site power outlets for electric vehicles. Cool Work-Place-Innovation happening within each building with stand-up desks, cool lighting, nice kitchen areas.

Cons

I joined Philips right out of college and grew within my function during my 5+ years with the organization. I left because I was being paid significantly below the minimum of the salary range regardless of the promotions, career moves, and stellar performance reviews I had received. There was this strange "rule" in place that salary increases can't be awarded greater than 10% of the employee's current salary.... because of this I always significantly lagged behind the salary range for my grade while others with far less experience, or poor performance, were being brought in at the mid-point of the range. I felt like the Company took significant advantage of me and this influenced me to seek alternate employment.

Philips Response

Thank you for your review. It is good to hear that you really enjoyed the working environment that we have created in Andover. We always hope to provide a very competitive salary and to reward our employees accordingly for their hard work. We are sorry to hear that in your experience this was not met in such a way that you unfortunately left us. We do hope that you have talked about the possibilities about promotions with relevant contacts within your team. We are always listening and like to see how we could help out. We wish you the best with all your future endeavors and we hope our ways might cross again in a more positive way.

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.

Philips Response

We’re sorry to hear about your experience. Your perspective on management transparency and resource support is incredibly helpful, and we’re actively working to improve our ways of working. We appreciate your dedication over the years and your honest insights, which help us focus on building a better workplace. We wish you all the best in your future career.
