Pros

The solutions and industry are interesting, and the projects as well as conversations with clients are highly engaging. The company places a strong emphasis on fostering an inclusive culture, and the many events organized make it a very pleasant and enjoyable work environment.

Cons

The strategy, both indirect (through partners) and direct (transactional)—creates confusion for both customers and employees. It’s often easier for someone external to get a job at the company, or you need to navigate internal politics by being visible and building relationships with managers. The salary packages are not very competitive, although the stock options help make the overall compensation more attractive. Autodesk recently underwent a round of layoffs, which has impacted the company's reputation to some extent
