Pluspunten

Salary is better than the industry average. They try hard to catch up and the SVP / VP level have a good visions for the company. They are cash rich and will let you learn and spend money on education (if you are in the right department and a team).

Minpunten

The unfortunate thing about this company is the middle managers who are in constant competition with each other and cannot collaborate due to too much politics to get ahead. Doing new things are encouraged but make sure you have a successful result, they do not like seeing you screw up even if it was just done as a "test". Understand that your position is at the mercy of someone above you therefore be ready to suck up to your manager as much as possible if you don't want to be randomly selected to be laid off. Reorg happens like every 6 month that leaves little room to build trust within the team. Lots of changes to get the company moving but things do not go down to implementation level as they are dissolved somewhere in the middle. Good intensions but actions are rarely delivered.

Pluspunten

This company is amazing! When you start you get a decent sized home office stipend but the on going benefits are great as well, including but not limited to a monthly WiFi reimbursement, a yearly wellness reimbursement, the option to work from a foreign country for up to a month a year, stock options, and much more! Aside from that, all the people I’ve worked with thus far are so easy to get along with and everyone truly pulls their weight.

Minpunten

Like any large company, there are occasional layoffs,

Pluspunten

The individual contributors, your peers you work with day in and day out are fantastic people! At the IC level, for the most part, it feels like everyone is in the fight together. The work/life balance is good depending on which business unit/team you're aligned with. The benefits are pretty solid, especially the 6 week sabbatical.

Minpunten

Autodesk moves at the pace of a snail, very slow to take action on anything. Selling is very difficult with all the undocumented approvals, processes, red tape and very few people are willing to actually help! Leadership doesn't care about the people their decisions impact. Feedback is rarely listened to and acted upon. Pay is terrible compared to competitors in this space. Autodesk has embraced a ton of change over the last few years with new marketing, sales and IT leadership and it shows. They are not shy in showing their desire to be the next Oracle at the expense of their people. They are constantly changing tools, processes, people, roles, you name it so you feel like you're under water constantly. Lipstick on a pig.
