Pros

The pay is very good, but a lot of time I just want to quit without notice, log off my computer and walk away

Cons

I work for a boss who clearly shows favoritism. She allows her pets to shrug off work, to jump the line in the call queue, so they dont ever have to take calls. And she acknowledges their birthdays with much fanfare, emojis and giffs on teams, while the rest of us, the "hoy paloy" (thats how it makes me feel) never get any recognition.. That is the worst part. Being openly ignored... Nothing makes you feel like you are worthless, than a boss who treats you like you are worthless..

Pros

Good number of leaves and employee discount on select Philips items

Cons

Working at Philips India often feels like being in the engine room of a massive cruise ship. While colleagues in the EU seem to enjoy a carefree fine dining experience, we, in the engine room, bear the brunt of project delays, working tirelessly on weekends and late nights. The result? Sometimes just a pat on the back and empty congratulatory messages. Additionally, the systems we work with can be frustratingly slow and prone to breakdowns during critical tasks. If you're seeking an environment that challenges your patience and potentially hampers your career growth, Philips India might be the right place for you.

Thank you for taking the time to write this review. It's clear that your Philips experience has not been positive. We're sorry to hear that you're not receiving the level of recognition you had hoped for for your hard work and that you don't find the systems you're working with to always function optimal. It's our aim to provide our people with a rewarding career experience and it's regrettable to hear that the opportunities at Philips in Bengaluru aren't meeting your expectations. Your feedback will be noted; our management is closely monitoring all reviews here on Glassdoor and is listening, but please feel free to share your thoughts with your (HR) manager as well (if you haven't done this yet). We wish you all the best moving forward.

Pros

A large company with a well-established business model.

Cons

Tons of work and little pay. It seems selective about who gets paid fairly and who doesn't. Lots of very racist employees, especially from Europe and the USA. HR is completely useless to end the cycle.
