Business Outlook

Pros

-work alongside very intelligent scientists -transducer technology itself is cutting edge -play daily with ultrasound systems -a few pretty interesting projects in the pipes -quite a few interesting people -full benefits -no horrible no-gos such as extreme micromanagement -somewhat flexible vacation / personal time

Cons

-from a software perspective, not very modern. From a technology perspective, philips is a transducer company, NOT a software company. -most work is c++, but it might as well be C for the most part -lots of legacy code -They senior software guys are for the most part very competent and easy to get along with, but there are many improvements that could be made by encouraging more modern programming practices, api's, languages... -senior management is VERY risk-adverse. There are some game-changers in the pipes, but they seem to get shelved a lot. -high-level direction on what projects are most important seems to shift frequently
