Pros

Philips Medical has a competent technical staff that is at theforefront of some interesting technology. For that reason I would say that Philips Medical is an engineering driven company with technology that is superior to its main rivals, Siemens and GE.

Cons

Since it is an engineering driven company, customer needs are sometime forgotten. Also Philips Medical has the lowest marketing to engineering ratio and as such they do not do a good job of developing products based on customer needs rather that the coolest technology. They also don't do a good job marketing their products.

Pros

Lots of good career opportunities. Dual career ladder for engineering. A lot of good people eager to share knowledge and build great friendships. Good benefit package. Value work life balance. Lots of opportunities for training, and lots of good managers who truly cares for their employees.

Cons

Not always the most competitive salaries and reward programs.

Pros

It's an international company where you have the possibility to work with people from around the world on top technologies and products. Top management has clear vision on the offering side that helps the company to stay focused. The diversity of Health Care, Consumer Electronics and Light gives them the strenght for not so good times as these now. The work / life balance is very good in Austria. Very flexible work times and remote working (if that's an option) are possible. That works very well here because there is a very good team spirit.

Cons

It's a big company with many rules to follow but flexible enough to ensure that the job gets done.
