Pros

Benefits were above bar compared to other industries

Cons

Promised benefits to continue to work during a major transition (Layoffs). Employees stayed for two+ years. Stabbed them in the back 2 months before without benefits. Worked there for years and saw the writing on the wall, left early on my own terms...they never improved. Products are CHEAPLY made. Should you decide to get scanned or get medical procedures, and see a Philips sticker, go somewhere else. Company outsourced to India. AUDIT THEM NOW. Violated FDA policies for 15 years+ and are attempting to cover it up by transferring to India. Purchased disposable products and attempted to rebuild them. *NOTE: I had a wonderful experience working there, but I cannot be silent.

Pros

Philips still has good people, meaningful healthcare technology, and a strong brand name. Many employees care deeply about the customers, the products, and doing quality work.

Cons

The company culture has gone downhill. Management has become increasingly reliant on spreadsheet-driven decision making that often has little connection to real field conditions, employee workload, or customer impact. Priorities and goals change constantly, creating a desperate, reactive environment where employees are not given enough time to adjust before leadership shifts direction again. Morale suffers because teams are expected to execute against moving targets while leadership treats unrealistic planning as an execution problem.
