Pros

Resources and budget are usually available to enable projects to be completed. The company has a wealth of technical knowledge built form years of existence. The work environment is very collaborative.

Cons

Sometimes the complex organization structure can hinder projects or tasks to be completed on time. Discussions are a big part of the company culture so this may extend the timeline for projects.

Pros

Philps is a great place to work. Great work/life balance and a lot of flexibility is offered to all employees.

Cons

Not so much a con but because Philips is such a large company it often takes longer to get things done. If coming from a small company it may be hard to get used to.

Pros

Philips has an excellent benefits package, certainly better than a comparably sized global company that I worked with previously. Overall, I think Philips makes good products and is an average place to work, in terms of advancement, recognition and career aspirations. I'm so frustrated working here that I'm struggling to find many "Pros".

Cons

I have never worked for a more dysfunctional organization in my career. Senior management routinely make poor strategic decisions and leave the rank and file to try and make the most of it. The "high potential" program cuts both ways - if you aren't a designated HYPO, you are going nowhere and those that do get designated, get a lot of responsibility thrown at them with little or no support from management. The basic philosophy is to only invest the bare minimum in the business and hope for the absolute best results.
