Pros

Medical company that actually does something significant for the world. Convenient hours. Easy to slack off if that is your thing.

Cons

- Management in constant fire-extinguishing mode. - Can't make a difference based on data or engineering or buisness, only based on politics. - Over 25 people left in the past 3 months, and more to come. - Low salaries - Very obvious "everyone is replacable" mentality - Engineering descisions made by high management, disregarding the engineers. - Very low inter and intra team colaboration despite efforts by good people, due to toxic environment - No RSU or options.

Thank you for leaving your review on Glassdoor. We're sorry to hear that you're far from keen on working for Philips in Tel-Aviv-Yafo as Software Engineer and that there are quite some things you're missing or that you'd like to see changed within your department. The mentality you describe does not sound like the mentality we strive for at Philips. Have you already discussed your experiences with your HR manager? If not, then we hope we can encourage you to. Your thoughts will be duly noted either way: our management is also active on this platform and not one review escapes their attention. Thank you again for sharing your experience and feedback, it's highly appreciated. We wish you all the best moving forward.

Hi there, thanks for taking the time to write us a review. It's great to hear Philips' environment gives you a chance to grow and participate in many fun projects while also maintaining a healthy balance between your personal and professional life. However, it's unfortunate there are some drawbacks when it comes to the company's embrace for change. We’re always interested in providing our people with a rewarding career experience, so feel free to bring your concern(s) to your HR representative or manager. Philips upper management is also active on this platform, so your feedback will be taken into consideration for future improvements. Thanks for supporting our mission to improve people’s lives. We wish you all the best.
