Pros

Flexible with work hours and schedule

Cons

Lack of communication between management and hourly employees doing the actual work. Management and those in supervisory roles need to be re-evaluated as most of them don’t listen to any feedback given and go and do and say what they want without any repercussions. Micromanagement is HIGH. Those with more seniority than you are super condescending. Certain employees get singled out by management and sometimes get embarrassed by said management. Supervisors and management tend to show favoritism to one or two employees and let the rest of us kick dust. Super unprofessional in that aspect. Not a lot of room for growth, no matter how hard you work.

Pros

Philips still has good people, meaningful healthcare technology, and a strong brand name. Many employees care deeply about the customers, the products, and doing quality work.

Cons

The company culture has gone downhill. Management has become increasingly reliant on spreadsheet-driven decision making that often has little connection to real field conditions, employee workload, or customer impact. Priorities and goals change constantly, creating a desperate, reactive environment where employees are not given enough time to adjust before leadership shifts direction again. Morale suffers because teams are expected to execute against moving targets while leadership treats unrealistic planning as an execution problem.
