Pros

Good people and organization. Having worked for several years there, I can attest to a culture that supports and promotes new ideas and innovation. The company has gone way beyond it's origins being focused on a single product line. So there was a good diverse, multi-channel, multi-product strategy in place that affords employees a decent mix of interesting business problems to address on an international scale.

Cons

There weren't many in my experience. Sometimes there was too much emphasis on gaining group consensus which manifested in lots of meetings.

Pros

The individual contributors, your peers you work with day in and day out are fantastic people! At the IC level, for the most part, it feels like everyone is in the fight together. The work/life balance is good depending on which business unit/team you're aligned with. The benefits are pretty solid, especially the 6 week sabbatical.

Cons

Autodesk moves at the pace of a snail, very slow to take action on anything. Selling is very difficult with all the undocumented approvals, processes, red tape and very few people are willing to actually help! Leadership doesn't care about the people their decisions impact. Feedback is rarely listened to and acted upon. Pay is terrible compared to competitors in this space. Autodesk has embraced a ton of change over the last few years with new marketing, sales and IT leadership and it shows. They are not shy in showing their desire to be the next Oracle at the expense of their people. They are constantly changing tools, processes, people, roles, you name it so you feel like you're under water constantly. Lipstick on a pig.
