Pros

Autodesk has a lot of different things they do and they are aggressive in delivery. So it often feels like working for a startup while at the same time working in a nice safe environment. Also the work is challenging and there just aren't that many companies that do cool graphics!

Cons

Unfortunately the politics in upper management are quite bad. That said, overall everyone is treated very well.

Pros

Autodesk's culture and its people are the best attributes of the company. I spent a long time there, and I had a wonderful run. The benefits are good, and comp plans are competitive. The work is exciting and engaging - especially when you consider how many ways the company's products touch our world. Brilliant technology, great people, good pay and benefits... you can't ask for a lot more if you want to work for a tech company - in the Bay Area or just about anyplace else on the planet!

Cons

Middle management can range from exceptional to inept. Some organizations can be insanely political - in my tenure, I saw this as leader-specific and not an Autodesk corporate standard. That being said, if you get caught in one of these vortices - get out asap. There are thousands of great jobs in the company, and just as many opportunities for success if you're diligent and smart.
