      Pros

      The initial pay package isn't too bad, just only that you will be stuck very much to that amount as there isn't much bonus or increments to expect in the next years due to the management's cost cutting.

      Cons

      The management lacked transparency, covered up lots of information, did not honestly communicate to people on the floor. For every end of quarter, staff were required to work plenty of unpaid overtime hours, sometimes on weekends as well. No compensation was given for unpaid OT whatsoever, and while we needed to meet the quota for productivity, we were piled on with volunteer projects which we needed to work on after work hours.

      Thank you for providing us this feedback. I'm sorry to hear about your experience, particularly with the overtime. I want to provide you with the opportunity to reach out to HR about the issue. Autodesk has a 3rd party service in place that you can use to talk about workplace issues such as work hours and provide feedback anonymously (855-822-9535). Another option would be to contact your HR business partner. I have passed along this review to the appropriate HR leadership.

      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.
