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

Philips Medical has a competent technical staff that is at theforefront of some interesting technology. For that reason I would say that Philips Medical is an engineering driven company with technology that is superior to its main rivals, Siemens and GE.

Cons

Since it is an engineering driven company, customer needs are sometime forgotten. Also Philips Medical has the lowest marketing to engineering ratio and as such they do not do a good job of developing products based on customer needs rather that the coolest technology. They also don't do a good job marketing their products.

Lots of good career opportunities. Dual career ladder for engineering. A lot of good people eager to share knowledge and build great friendships. Good benefit package. Value work life balance. Lots of opportunities for training, and lots of good managers who truly cares for their employees.

Cons

Not always the most competitive salaries and reward programs.
