Pros

The employees, at least those who are still there...

Cons

- NA leadership has very little experience. - The installation of Lean principles into the sales force. - Company morale is in the tank and no one at the top cares. - The company is incapable of collecting it's AR, consistently. - Continued mass exodus of leaders who know what they're doing. In summary: New NA CEO is destroying the company. During your interview, ask why so many of the NA executives have left in the last 12 months. The product quality is suspect and they're trying to drive Lean principles into the wrong parts of the organization. Do yourself a favor, stay away!

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.
