Depressing work environment- Ultra Sound department is the worst
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.
