Pros

It is a very stable company

Cons

Very little incentive to try to advance your career. Way too much process and too many people hired just to enforce and monitor processes.

Very stable. Long history. Appreciates employees. Great place to work. I have worked with big companies like GE, Amazon and IBM but by far Philips is the best.
