Siemens PLM Software Reviews

Pros

At Siemens PLM you are definitely respected, given opportunity to grow and generally part of a pretty healthy ecosystem. This is a great place to work, and the work we do is very interesting. Our customers are great and we are generally strategic to their business in some domains or at least highly differentiated. We are generally seen as a strategic asset to our customers / partners. You own your own career and development path, so make a point to work that with your manager and you won't be upset. People who get upset generally don't want to take a chance to do something new, then get frustrated because they "feel" stuck. The opportunity is there, but you OWN your career and have to be courageous to take a chance.

Cons

I would generally like a little more aggression and accountability to results, but without being disruptive. I haven't agreed with all decisions leadership has made, but I work with far too many companies to believe that there is a utopia where this happens. In any case I think we are headed in the right direction now across the board.

Advice to Senior Management

I don't know how this information will be used. I can't share here without telling too much about our business.

Pros

Very open to receive ideas, criticism with solutions, flexible work times, option to work from home if needed, good benefits, good people to work with, good time offs, competitive compensation plans. Been with the same group for more than a decade which has a very low turn over.

Cons

Not a place to be if someone is looking for career growth. Most of the pros are found at most companies now a days, no career growth due to low turn over.. Could never figure out what exactly HR does for career planning.

Advice to Senior Management

In today's world to attract top talent either fresh or experienced, a clear cut career plan in addition to challenging work is needed otherwise any other company will do.

Pros

Siemens was a great place to work from a standpoint of striking a balance between your personal and professional life. A great thing about Siemens is that in all customer interactions I had, we always did the right thing to ensure customer success. Really appreciated this corporate motto.

Cons

Very little chance for advancement unless you were in the network. Not much of a career path and below average wages.

Advice to Senior Management

Recognize the contributions of the people on the street as they are critical to the success of the company. Software companies are measured on the revenue of software sold.

Cons

limited professional growth, difficult to get into managerial roles unless you are at the right place at the right time.

Pros

Depending on location, you can have a fairly flexible schedule, but some people are constantly traveling. Overall the people are quite nice, it's a software company, so be prepared to run in to the typical CS no social skills type of person somewhat regularly....

Bring back cost-of-living factors when deciding salaries.
