Philips "Career Growth" Reviews

Likes

I used to like hybrid work(3 days/week). Used to like the flexibility and internal movement opportunities.

Dislikes

Consistent push to come to office for more than 3 days. No skill development, only on the job learning. No global site exposure. Relocation is also not available nowadays to move to sites outside India. Fear of job security is seen owing to business conditions.

Dislikes

Skill and performance is not the priority for promotion or increments, it depends highly upon bosses liking. No clear goals and work packages are defined, so performance ratings is again depends on boss favours. Increment doesn’t beat inflation. System always in support of bosses in any case. R&D resource purchase & logistics process is complex and very slow compared to other global teams, affects work packages most of the time of Indian team....Read More

1. You will not be held down by the technologies you know. There are opportunities to move to different teams and learn new technologies. 2. Most of the teams are generally good to work with. They support each other. They stretch when needed. Many go out of their way if you need help. 3. Flexible office hours. 4. Unlimited sick leaves. (Not sure how long this would stay) People generally don't take sick leaves even though they're unlimited. Company is forcing people to take leaves be introducing wellness day. They cut 1 day of your PL every quarter. So you are forced to take an off on that day....Read More

Dislikes

1. Every year a employee benefits are getting removed as part of cost cutting. Many got silently removed without anyone getting to know. 2. Bad decisions at top level are costing dearly. Some businesses were sold off to concentrate on healthcare. These ended up being highly profitable after moving out. New companies were acquired an d good Philips products were shut down to prevent overlap. Then you realise the new products are not up to the mark when you compare them to the products that were shut down....Read More
