Vantaggi
Very low pressure compared with most tech jobs... a 10am till 3pm working environment Autodesk has a dominant position in a few segments, particularly with AutoCAD in drafting Salary and lifestyle are very good Most offices have good working environments
Svantaggi
Really average executive team ( a few bright sparks) who have been in positions without consequence of failure (all the poorly executed acquisitions and low growth in new segments)... incredibly self serving bunch who have lost the trust of most middle managers There are some fantastic business units to work in, but it all gets lost in bland corporate strategy... just visit the web site to see how hard it is to understand what Autodesk's brand and direction are? A lot of crony behavior. If you like to fluff your VP instead of the customer, this is the place for you! Since Carol Bartz left, much of the buzz and drive has been absent... what was left departed when they fired the much loved EVP Sales last year Internal staff satisfaction measurements are showing increasingly worse results every year
