      Toxic work culture.

      Distribution associate
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Their 401k is not bad, and my coworkers are generally good people.

      Cons

      Management is discriminatory and hard work gets you nowhere in the company due to favoritism. Regularly put down and singled out and management/HR doesn't care, I've literally been told by HR to 'get over it' when going to them for help. I've gone nearly three years with no raise due to 'restructuring'. Also work 50+ hour work weeks because management doesn't know how to manage the place.

      Scientist/Architects/Specialists should think 100 times before PIC joining

      Principal software architect
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      1. Challenging Healthcare Products. 2. Opportunity for grow with Products 3. Many employee benefits and perks.

      Cons

      1. Not a product mindset, broader vision of success- NIL, immature and very risky work culture. 2. Very unsafe place to join and survive for experienced people. Hire/Fire/Re-structure is in culture. 3. Not a reliable place to join if you have family, home loan, education loan, growing kids or any other liability. BE CAREFUL. 4. Indecisive people managers, have no respect for others.

      Thank you for saying a few words about the 3+ years you've worked for our company in Bangalore as Principal Software Architect. We're glad to hear that you were happy with the benefits that were being provided, but it's regrettable that there are several things you'd like to see changed within your former department. Your feedback and the feedback we receive from other (former) employees is very valuable to us and help us to improve as employer. It has been duly noted. We hope that you've already found (or will soon find) another position, one that is fully to your liking. Thank you again for leaving your review here and all the best in your future endeavors!

      Technologist/Architect suffer, Heaven for Managers

      Senior architect
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      1. Attractive policy, health insurance, gym, variables etc 2. work from home, sick leave etc

      Cons

      1. Its not product based but behavior is of service based. lots of politics by managers. 2. Technologist, architects, senior architects have very tough life and no job security. 3. 4 times a years reorganization happens and only technical people get fired specially Engineers, Architects and Test Architects. 4. Mismanagement at lower level is causing failing of BUs, one after another.

      Hi there, thank you for taking the time to review your former employer. We highly appreciate it that you've not only shared the things you were happy with during the time you've worked for Philips as Senior Architect, but that you've also shared the aspects that you think need to change. Of course, reorganization is definitely not something that we think lightly of. We're constantly striving for improvement, not only as manufacturer but also as employer, and your feedback is therefore very valuable to us. It will be duly noted. Thank you again for sharing your thoughts here and all the best in your future undertakings!
