Pluspunten

Excellent product with large fan base. Skilled engineering organization. New technology roadmap looks solid.

Minpunten

Marketing department is in disarray with poor leadership and ridiculously high turnover. Product marketing jobs at this location are operations oriented (read - engineering change orders and packaging revisions); all business, revenue planning, channel and customer activity is handled at the local country level. Distance from corporate HQ limits interaction with peers, and all international travel is in coach (long and awful flights to NL). If you're not a Dutch man under the age of 35, your opportunities for advancement in Philips global is very limited.

Pluspunten

Caring for complete people internally and world ecosystem. Focus on making lives better with purposeful impact worldwide. Changes happening as around the world but continue to see push to promote from within.

Minpunten

Many levels of processes, however after working at a company where the processes were bypassed causing further delays down the line. I see and understand the purpose.

Pluspunten

The people in non- upper management roles that work there are fantastic. Great sense of community onsite and the culture champions are consistently looking for ways to make work life better.

Minpunten

Very poor communication on the strategy for the business unit. Leadership publicly promotes innovation and new ideas to be presented but then those ideas are shot down or penalized in private by current upper management. The business unit leadership says that don't want excuses for project delays but will then decide to do 3 major layoffs in the first two quarters with no transition plan, no support for gap in resources and no expectations to delayed progress.
