      Pros

      Great people to work with, awesome team of FE's, don't want to leave.

      Cons

      Local RSM making life unbearable, she is a B and no idea what she is doing!! I need a true manager, not a baby sitter, I need leadership, not a dictator, Philips needs to address local area service management, they need to purge all the bad managers, ASAP!!

      Pros

      Good benefits, amazing potential, great place to gain experience and skill sets that can be applied elsewhere. You actually work with products that save and improve the quality of lives worldwide. There are still a number of intelligent and incredible coworkers (who do care) that you can collaborate with. If you are lucky to work for a solid manager, you can really excel. Facility in Andover is world class.

      Cons

      One of the most political companies around. If you voice any concerns or challenge management, you're gone. If your manager or his/her boss doesn't like you, look for another job FAST. It doesn't matter the quality of your output, but who you know. Employees are scared to voice there true feelings and opinions. A number of high quality employees continue to leave simply because they are not treated with respect from managers/directors/executives who are nothing but "corporate-bullies".

      Pros

      Philips has a generally well respected reputation, and is viewed from outside as a top-tier international corporation. Sonicare has a very loyal following as a brand, and is a great product.

      Cons

      Philips is extremely bureaucratic as an organization. The old Philips adage "if you're not Dutch, you're not much" is essentially true. Mediocrity and incompetence is rewarded over high performance, and morale is generally dismal, especially within the Marketing department. Turnover within Marketing is high; people come in energized, but quickly become demotivated and leave.
