Pros

Opportunities. Training. Innovative products. Benefits.

Cons

Management out of touch with real world expectations. Parts have too high failure rate (DOA). Does not listen to field on resolutions to problems faced day to day. Local management holds employees back and micro manages.

Hi there, it's a pity to hear you felt like the management was not properly connected and committed to the field staff and that we didn't keep in touch with you when you left after 10 years. I can imagine that is disappointing, and I apologize. That's definitely a learning moment for us. It's good to hear you were pleased with the career and learning opportunities during your time with us. Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts here. I sincerely hope you are happy in your current job and wish you all the best with your career!

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.
