Bureaucratic and political .. Poor work culture and favors who are

Just unimaginable and poor management. They have prioritize people based on who is more favorable to whom. I have wasted precious time of our life in it. Unless you are willing to take unnecessary politics and favoritism this is a wrong place to work. Regarding payment and salary its good. But no worklife balance. HR has no role to play just a puppet of Management. Never considered empowering and looking at the human side.

Pros

Salary and other benefit wise good.

Cons

Poor work culture and political organization not recommended.

Great policies and work ethics

Great work culture, ethics and policies. Global best practices, best IT systems and employee friendly policies. Only issue is lack of long term sustainable business views.

The work here is chill

No free food. The work here is sort of managerial and support work. One could learn only minimal technical knowledge. Pros: laid-back workCons: No clear management

Competitive and professional atmosphere

Highly professional working environment. There is a fool-proof system for the operation of the organization. None can escape from this system. It enables you to deliver your best performance.

Work life balance is a challenge in my team but overall it is really a great experience starting my career at Philips

Philips is a healthcare company which has a clear vision on where they are heading. I felt great working for the company but after some time I wanted to change the team to work on a different project and that did not happen because management wants me to stay in my current team. That's the only reason I left the company. other than that pay is good and work life balance is a challenge sometimes which also depends on the team you are working for.

Good place to start with

Good place to start with, good job security but bad work life balance. Managers are good and team is also helping but sometimes too much work. Nice company

Was this review helpful?

slow moving organization, trying to become more agile, everyone is not on board, Inter-teams collaboration is missing, depends on manager,

Opportunity for growth are very limited, moving within and across is difficult at higher levels, leaders are ambiguous, work life balance is ok, There is not really Hugh pressure to achieve results as long as you are perceived to try, inter teams coordination is missing, lots of duplications, Its an ethical company.

Pros

employee friendly policies, fair pay, work life balance, not a difficult place to survive.

Cons

non-existent HR oversight to ensure that managers are fair which is very surprising, lot of duplication and waste, lower coordination between teams, ambiguous directions from leadership.
