Pros

It's a pretty laid-back environment and they really care about their employees. Benefits are reasonable as well as their work-life balance. I've learned a great deal working here and have had numerous opportunities for growing and developing. Their performance management process is one way that we are evaluated for obtaining the goals we have set for the year. It's a pretty laid-back environment and they really care about their employees.

Cons

The Dutch leadership is not often in touch with its US employees. Unfortunately, there have been and will be layoffs throughout the country. It's a shame because the company has such potential. They put too much focus on their healthcare division and not enough on the other areas. Bonuses have also gone down. The Dutch leadership is not often in touch with its US employees.

Pros

Great company targeted towards being market driven, focused on end users to enrich their lives, it's employees, and via sustainability our planet and society. It;s focus on being a health and well being company provides interesting growth/profit opportunities in an area contributing to the mentioned stakeholder groups.

Cons

Sometimes being a Dutch company we take too much time to discuss, to get everybody on board before making a decision. The markets served (Healthcare, Lighting, Consumer Lifestyle) force to be very cost oriented to obtain the margins which are required to berewarded by the shareholder community, this can take away some of the conditions to function more easily/comfortably and to the best of each ability.
