Pros

Great people and amazing benefits!!

Cons

Philips is still developing their direction. There is a lot of changes in leadership and people are constantly leaving. The most difficult part is they encourage professional development but HR is not working to make it happen. There is not much support. We were warned before about Philips having many layoffs and it seems to be the go to.

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.
