Pros

I’ve joined Autodesk because of its reputation of a supposedly amazing company with great culture.

Cons

After joining, I have realized after a few quarters how the story was only belonging to the past. With changes in leadership and some great managers leaving, it just turned into a very sad environment where meritocracy is linked to how much you praise up…and leaders are either sharks or islands. If you wish to bring your true self to work, this is not the place.

Autodesk Response

Autodesk has a Business and Ethics Hotline and we encourage anyone with questions or concerns to contact us through this hotline.
