Great work culture and benefits

Recommend

Pros

The people are just amazing, they are open to share their experience and help you in any way. Didn't witness any politics, it was very straight forward. Do you work to get help when needed, and present your work. A lot of recognition is given on good work, and honest feedbacks were given to encourage improvement. Intern salary was very competitive to other big companies with home allowance given. Other than that WFH setup reimbursement and wellness benefits were given. Health insurance included. And so many goodies!!!

Cons

They currently don't have a centralized data source, hence collecting data was a pain. They are working on it and will get there in a few years.

Consulting Dysfunction

Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

Pay and benefits are pretty good, there are some good people within the organization. Current CEO seems good, no layoffs since he took over, which used to be every year.

Cons

Autodesk is a good company I have heard, but the things required of consulting project managers are often absurd, non-sensical, and mired in bureaucracy and politics, which is strange for such a small subset of the larger organization. It seems that here, project managers are the lowest of the low and get no respect. Priorities of all other groups seem to trump priorities of PMs. Director level management has historically been not-to-be trusted, and the level of Machiavellian maneuvering is mindboggling. There are a lot of cliques, and favoritism of unsavory types exists. Layoffs and bullies are not uncommon. Opportunities for advancement are quite limited.

Pros

It was a great place to work, very good culture. The projects are challenging, and you get to learn a lot. Teams are well sized, and overall a really good place to work.

Cons

Salaries should be higher doesn't compare up to Google. Management could do better sharing their vision and objectives with the company.
