Vantaggi

The people I worked with were smart and kind, I always felt motivated and happy to come to work.

Svantaggi

During my time with Autodesk, I was moved from team to team because of continuous company wide reorganization. Though I was always working towards promotion, earning excellent reviews during each review cycle, each reorg seemed to set me back to square one with a new boss. I was told multiple times that you need to perform at the position you hope to be promoted to for *years* before you’re recognized with a title change and pay raise. You can switch positions internally but even if the role is a higher pay grade, you can only be paid at the same grade the role you transitioned from. My last year at Autodesk my most current boss told me I’d be promoted by the end of the year, instead I was laid off during, yet another, company reorganization. Autodesk is a velvet coffin. Get comfortable in your role because you’re not going anywhere within the company, you’ll like it there so you won’t really try to leave. Your skills will become stale if you’re not developing them outside of Autodesk because this is not a company you can grow with. You’re just a stepping stone for them as the transition through multiple reorganizations.

Vantaggi

Autodesk has, hands down, one of the warmest and most supportive corporate cultures I’ve ever experienced. From day one, people were welcoming, respectful, kind, and genuinely available to help. Even as a contract worker, I never felt like an outsider. I felt included, trusted, and treated like part of the team. The marketing team was an incredible group: collaborative, smart, generous with their time, and always willing to answer questions. Autodesk also has a true teaching culture. You never feel silly for asking questions, and there is a clear willingness across teams to help people learn, improve, and succeed. Operationally, the company was also impressively efficient. The technology, meeting tools, scheduling systems, and general workflows made it easy to connect with people, set appointments, collaborate, and keep work moving without unnecessary friction. Overall, Autodesk set the bar for what a healthy corporate culture can feel like: organized, human, respectful, inclusive, and genuinely collaborative. Pros: Warm culture, helpful people, strong tools and technology, respectful teams, inclusive environment, great marketing organization.

Svantaggi

As a contractor, I only wish the experience had been longer.
