Pros

You can camp out there for a long time without getting noticed.

Cons

They have so much red tape they can't act in an agile manner. They hire people into positions that are inappropriate for their experience. They promote their "brand" on everything to make themselves look good but they have no abililty to produce anything innovative or that the market would actually want to buy. They survive only on old technology that is difficult to replace due to high barrier to entry.

Philips Response

Hi there, we appreciate you taking the time to write down your experiences with us. We regret hearing you weren't all that satisfied with your job and our product innovation. That's not the sentiment we aim for, of course, and we do hope your next challenge will be more to your liking. Regardless, thanks for leaving your review and all the best with your career.

Pros

Good Teamates. Thats it! No other Pros!

Cons

Even after leaving Philips HR and payroll department are not sending me my Payslips. It's been one month since I have asked them. This kind of culture is very bad! I am not sure what to do to get my own payslips now!

Philips Response

Hi there, thank you for taking the time to share your experiences here. We regret hearing you haven't received all of your payslips yet, and we can imagine that must be disconcerting. We do advise contacting your HR department again to have them correct this at their earliest opportunity. Please know that upper management is active on this platform too, so your feedback won't go unnoticed. Despite this repercussion, we wish you all the best and a fruitful career.
