Pros

Great people. Good benefits. Remote work.

Cons

Trying not to be "sour grapes" as I was laid off yesterday. But, it's worth noting that in 7 years, the job got worse. Year after year. If it weren't for Revit & AutoCad subscription renewals, the AECO story at Autodesk would be very different. Promoting shiny baubles at AU or on LinkedIn while front line/customer facing employees bear the brunt of a patchwork of disconnected back end systems where data is impossible to find, a pricing structure based on fiction that clients hate, and an out of touch leadership team. Yearly changes in sales methodologies, bloated process, etc makes for a challenging work environment. Writing was on the wall 3 years ago- no more RSU's, no back fill to lost positions, more work, less chance to achieve success.

managers are free to do favouritism and dont appear in 1:1 even if you take followups for months!! Also not good projects that have technical challenges... You have to be on managers good books to excel.

Pros

Flexible working hours Employee friendly Strong well-being packages Strong benefits

Cons

Too slow to react changes Big chunk of coding database which people even forget how it works Too much connection between apps creates too much communication cycle Year-end reviews are not based on your success, it is based on your rank at the team or other teams with the same profile. Frequent lay-off
