Pros

People return to autodesk after leaving for other companies, because it is a wonderful place to work. Respectful, successful, team oriented ad provides good career growth opportunity if you do your job well and have good people skills.

Cons

It is a strong relationship company - relationships and influence skills are important - and which can lead being political environment sometimes. In my experience, conflict is avoided.

Pros

Autodesk has a lot of different things they do and they are aggressive in delivery. So it often feels like working for a startup while at the same time working in a nice safe environment. Also the work is challenging and there just aren't that many companies that do cool graphics!

Cons

Unfortunately the politics in upper management are quite bad. That said, overall everyone is treated very well.
