Pros

A profitable company with good growth and revenues

Cons

The president of our >$1B group is called a Category Leader and visits for 3 years before moving onto their next career move within Philips. There is no culture or continuity and they panic every year when Q1 revenues are seasonally low.

Thank you for your review on here. By the sounds of it you see opportunities that aren't capitalized on enough in your opinion. A change might not be the easiest to bring about, but if you have any feedback or ideas on how to do things better, I'd like to encourage you to talk with the managing personnel - certainly given your long experience working with us.

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.
