      Great Benefits, Good Salary, Poor Management

      Pros

      The benefits are great! The 401k match is very good and it's difficult finding other companies who match similarly. The health benefits and better than some. The salary is okay, I'd say it meets industry standards. It's definitely possible to be paid more elsewhere. The site is moving from Andover to Cambridge.

      Cons

      The management is really bad from senior managers to directors. There doesn't ever seem to be a clear goal. They're constantly jumping and shifting from project to project and they don't take the time to do it right the first time. The company lacks transparency big time. Employees are more likely to find out that their jobs are moving to Nashville via a rogue/mistaken e-mail (this has happened) than an actual announcement from management. Another con is much of the business is moving to Nashville, and they're slowly farming the jobs to the Nashville location. Some managers play favorites.

      Hi there, Thanks for sharing a few words about your experiences working for Philips. This means a lot to us, especially since you've been working for our brand for a couple of years already. Your input is appreciated. We can imagine it's harsh finding out that jobs move to another town via this way. That's definitely not the impression we want our employees to have. Thanks for bringing this to our attention. Philips' management is active on Glassdoor as well, so your feedback is duly noted. Wishing you all the best in your professional career.

      Humiliation and exploitation at highest level

      Cons

      You have to struggle to kick out new people if you are age old 10+ years in Philips

      Pros

      I like the atmosphere and the ability to approach senior and upper management without any repercussions. PTO & Sick time is great. Best I ever had in a long time!

      Cons

      One person handling all HR claims for 800+ employees. Male Senior management favors male employees! your hard work is not acknowledged. the ones who slack off and have zero experience get away with not working and being on their phones because they are friends with senior management. This is not the corporate experience I expected. There is no loyalty amongst leadership and team. It's sad when the whole company is waiting on amazon to arrive!

      Hi there, thank you for sharing your experiences with your time at Philips here. Great to hear you're happy with the atmosphere and approachability of higher management. Having said that, the way you describe the HR processes within your department is less thrilling. I can imagine it's not great to have the idea male employees are being favored. Therefore, I would like to draw your attention to our Ethics point, an independent third party (https://secure.ethicspoint.eu/domain/media/en/gui/100518/index.html). Please know that management is active on Glassdoor as well, so your feedback won't go unnoted. Thanks again for sharing this and I wish you all the best with your career!
