Pros

If you like politics and bro culture, this is the place for you.

Cons

I worked in this hell because they bought our startup and had to wait for them to vest. No career path in the ACS division, we all know the sales team will get diluted and channel parters will take the jobs. That’s what Autodesk does best. Buy startups and spit out the people working in them in small increments so they never make the news. The culture is bad, as they like to talk about diversity but don’t higher them cause apparently management doesn’t know how to interview them. Fact ! Comment I got when asked. I finally quit, and the HR proved me right that this company doesn’t care. Kati, worst HR . Who kept on getting defensive when I was trying to explain my side and why I quit. Sexism and no ownership of the management. If they are not hitting their target, they will though you under the bus. If you are reading this and on the fence of quitting, do it now. It’s scary but it’s not worth your mental health.

Pros

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.

Cons

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