Philips is no longer a good place to work

Sr. program manager

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Great co-workers. Decent Flexibility. Work from home.

Cons

Company is moving all R&D jobs and manufacturing out of the US. Upper Level Management is terrible. No direction other than to save money by hiring inexperienced people and expecting long-term employees to train them before they are laid off. Good people are leaving in droves. Morale is terrible

Good work/life balance - poor management

Project coordinator

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good work/life balance Flexible on hours

Cons

Very poor management in some teams, causing a cascade effect of poor workflow on larger projects, recalls, wasted resources etc. Crazy high employee turnover, especially in teams like marketing. Managers play favorites and deny obvious candidates for promotion in favor of people with (often) years less experience who they just 'like' better HR are useless and never fix anything
