Pros

Chance for Engineering grads to understand human anatomy to a greater detail. Chance to learn more about legacy code (nearly 25 year old legacy code base) Chance to interact with some really good technically strong engineers and doctors

Cons

- Politically rooted environment - Individual performance has absolutely no impact in Rewards, Recognition and Promotion. People who suck up to the managers get wind fall gains. - Managers are morally bankrupt and as lazy as government officials - Architects are the worst lot. Unapproachable and technically Zero. - Architects behave like gods and control the people managers into playing politics. - Senior managers have no idea about the product and fake knowledge repeatedly. - Groupism and Seniority in philips ! matters in all activities spanning day to day working here. - You will have to contend working with really dumb people with a lot of political force.

Pros

Good place to work, Great people, fast paced manufacturing environment. Successful products. good to average benefits and employee programs. Local managers and staff are very vested in the company and work hard to keep it successful.

Cons

Philips acquisition of Respironics cut our heart out in favor of a bureaucratic nightmare of slogans and programs that die on the vine. New slogans and directives every 6 to 9 months. Senior managers come in and milk the brand and move on, hence the constant change of marching orders. Not sure that were not in our death throes globally but the Bank of Respironics can save the ship. The majority of our best talent has left the building and were "Lean" to the bone.
