Pros

still a good name to have on your cv

Cons

just another call centre in Barcelona. what some people wrote in some reviews its absolutely true. As often happens when these hubs begin to grow too much and too quickly, they get off the rail and they lose the spirit and feeling of the start. Micromanagement and focus only on number of calls and talk time, not on the long term strategy. Confusion on objectives and quotas. If you like to cheer for a team building event or enjoy american style power days on the phone this is the place for you. Hr interview process run by people who do not have a clue about the right candidate to choose, nor the skills required for the positions they advertise

Pros

This company is amazing! When you start you get a decent sized home office stipend but the on going benefits are great as well, including but not limited to a monthly WiFi reimbursement, a yearly wellness reimbursement, the option to work from a foreign country for up to a month a year, stock options, and much more! Aside from that, all the people I’ve worked with thus far are so easy to get along with and everyone truly pulls their weight.

Cons

Like any large company, there are occasional layoffs,

Pros

The individual contributors, your peers you work with day in and day out are fantastic people! At the IC level, for the most part, it feels like everyone is in the fight together. The work/life balance is good depending on which business unit/team you're aligned with. The benefits are pretty solid, especially the 6 week sabbatical.

Cons

Autodesk moves at the pace of a snail, very slow to take action on anything. Selling is very difficult with all the undocumented approvals, processes, red tape and very few people are willing to actually help! Leadership doesn't care about the people their decisions impact. Feedback is rarely listened to and acted upon. Pay is terrible compared to competitors in this space. Autodesk has embraced a ton of change over the last few years with new marketing, sales and IT leadership and it shows. They are not shy in showing their desire to be the next Oracle at the expense of their people. They are constantly changing tools, processes, people, roles, you name it so you feel like you're under water constantly. Lipstick on a pig.
