Pros
Philips cares deeply about patient care, and the impact it's products make on quality of care. Ethics and integrity are high, and compliance to regulations globally are closely adhered too and monitored. Being a large company, growing a long term career is also possible and encouraged, although it is not easy and you must take ownership of you own career development.
Cons
Philips today is a company comprised of many acquisitions, which has created a culture that varies widely depending on the sector you are part of. Avoid imaging systems, heavy handed dictatorial management has created a negative culture. On the other hand, patient monitoring (PCCI) and HHS are very different, more collaborative, values employees and what they do.
