Pros

Talented colleagues, good work-life balance, good and fair annual performance review system in place.

Too many layers, rigid and sometimes archaic processes, slow decision making, non-transparent decisions by upper management, uninspiring HR and IT departments, "rewards" loyalty and long service by removing benefits.

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Employee benefits, Work Life balance, decent package

Cons

Think twice before joining Health care mobility team. They do not have any road map and manager is the worst manager I have ever worked for. To grow in his team you should do lot of politics and tricks like sending email on sundays and late nights and make him believe you do extra. He measures productivity by number of lines you code each day. He compares number of lines of code to bricks in constructing a wall and believes programming is like construction. In simple he has in built talent to motivate people to resign. In philips, Healthcare mobility team has highest attrition rate and management does nothing to this, only thing they do is arrange a skip level meeting which is good for nothing. Mobility manager is the benchmark for worst managers in Philips.
