Pros

Philips is a diverse company with offices throughout the World which leads to endless opportunity.

Opportunities are only present if you are able to relocate to certain offices. Unless you are able to relocate, HR functions do not have as many growth opportunities as other functions such as Sales, Marketing, Engineering, etc. would have.
