low morale, no career growth, culture, or values

Pros

The 401k is good? Healthcare is mediocre. There's a gym, that you pay for.

Cons

Organization changes every 6 months. Job security is low if you are not in India or NL. Upper management communication on organization changes is very poor and swept under the rug. Non-standard communication of organizational changes between departments. Everyone is clueless. Little to no employee development. No clear career development paths. Morale is rock bottom. This is not a fun or healthy place to work.

Pros

Informal dress code. You can ignore loud ignorant coworkers while wearing headphones. I do not have twenty words for company pros.

Cons

Zero organization. Zero management. Zero HR Support. Harassment allowed. Did I mention Philips is moving 800 positions to nashville TN in the next two years?

Pros

I've loved working for Philips. They really convey the feeling that you're working WITH someone and not FOR someone. But with the news bestowed on us a couple of weeks ago, my employment at Philips will be ending in less than 2 years.

Cons

We've just received word that the company hub is moving to Nashville, TN. We have the option of leaving and taking severance in the beginning of 2019 or reapplying for our current jobs in Tennessee....at a pay scale commensurate with that region of the country.
