Thank you for saying a few words about the 2 years you've been working at Philips in Bengaluru. Your feedback is very welcome. It's good to hear that you're content with the compensation offered and with the hybrid work culture. Of course, we're very sorry to hear about the amount of stress you experience. We hope that we can encourage you to bring this to the attention of your (HR) manager, to see how this could be changed. Our senior management is also active on Glassdoor and is taking notes. Wishing you all the best moving forward!

Pros

The people in non- upper management roles that work there are fantastic. Great sense of community onsite and the culture champions are consistently looking for ways to make work life better.

Cons

Very poor communication on the strategy for the business unit. Leadership publicly promotes innovation and new ideas to be presented but then those ideas are shot down or penalized in private by current upper management. The business unit leadership says that don't want excuses for project delays but will then decide to do 3 major layoffs in the first two quarters with no transition plan, no support for gap in resources and no expectations to delayed progress.
