Pros

401k plan is slightly better than industry average. It is literally the only thing I like about Philips

Cons

Everything I think my last post was deleted, so I’ll be gentle A healthcare company that has forced us back to the office on Sept 1 despite desperate pleas from employees. When those with young, unvaccinated children asked about exceptions, they were told to mask up! Terrible managers. Everyone is a micromanager only focused on their own careers. No real leaders growing talent. You will truly regret your decision to leave your company and come to Philips. Trust me Zero opportunities for growth. They just lie to you until you finally realized it's all bs

Pros

- Easy commute if you live north of Seattle/Bellevue - Decent cafeteria - Decent compensation

Cons

- The level of apathy amongst colleagues is off the charts. Many people are simply coasting and collecting a paycheck. When you try to be a team player and pick up the slack, you simply become a target for blame. - Due to the extremely lax "return to office" policy, the office often feels quite empty when there is plenty of work to be done. Being onsite M-F often leads to more work with little support. - There is a culture of public shaming, with several meetings every week dedicated to project leads targeting individuals to make up for their own lack of technical understanding.
