Autodesk Project Manager reviews

Depends very much upon what you may do. Autodesk Consulting is a backwater of the country and has poor management in the delivery area. It is chaotic with almost no stability. As a project manager in this area, expect that yes, you can often work from home, and yes, you get paid pretty well, but also yes, you will be stressed out, yes, you will be overloaded with process, and yes, you will be given expectations that are nearly impossible to meet given poor systems and poor upper level management. Not much for promotion opportunities either as a project manager, and many of the project managers are forced to spend their time on internal processes and accounting processes much more than actually managing projects. Also, expect many people with small jobs and big attitudes including project accountants.

Work/life balance appalling: manager directly said we all "needed to work longer and harder" to adjust for resources that were laid off due to budget constraints (team members were already working 10+ hour days for over a year). Office culture: Sink or swim, there is little to no help or direction. You need to be of the mind set to be willing to just try something and maybe fail, then accept the consequences. Human Resource Dept, Recruiting, and the senior Leadership teams are among the worse I've dealt with in 30+ years. Recruiting - they do not respond, nor do they provide feedback to individuals on whether they've been selected, or passed on - just rude. Management teams, they grows teams and then dismiss resources with apparently little thought of the impact it has on individuals and team members - which can be devastating. It would be far better to shrink/grow with contractors rather than impact FTE's consistently. And HR - non existent! I had a resource visiting from another country hit by a car on the way to work, broke his ribs and had internal bruising. He was delayed going home for over a month due to the injuries. HR did very little to help this young man - provided no direction or help. And when I mentioned to my manager that the young man was having difficulty using his hand, he said "he still has another good hand to use - so he's good". Not funny!
