Autodesk is truly an amazing place to work. As a company its different - it's not your typical heartless corporate entity out to make money. It cares about the employees, customers, environment, and the planet as a whole. This sentiment pervades through the company and its palpable. People are genuinely friendly and attrition rate is really low.
Cons
The work culture is almost too collaborative for Autodesk's own good. There are too many meetings and emails about the littlest thing. Middle management don't feel empowered to make decisions and leave it to VPs to make the call. Product decisions are top-down. Product managers are always looking for approval from executives to make tough calls. Too many levels of management and people are well entrenched make it difficult for people aspiring to grow.

I’ve worked for some great organizations and I can say that working at AutoDesk has been the best employment experience I could ask for. I am so proud to work for and with such amazing people who create an inclusive culture full of amazing opportunities to get involved and consistently grow professionally and personally. The pay is great, the benefits are better than than I could have hoped. Autodesk clearly cares about work life balance and creating a fun atmosphere where I feel included and appreciated. The management is top notch and the team running the Denver Hub are impressive, caring, intelligent, passionate, humble, and listen to the feedback from their staff. The workplace and office are also incredible and the team in Denver sets us up to succeed. The workplace team truly creates an environment that promotes professional and personal growth and allows you to be productive. The belonging and events are paramount to no other organization I’ve worked for including Nike. Sales quotas are appropriate and AutoDesk cares deeply about our customers and helping them achieve their goals and dreams. The projects we support in the industry are leading change for the better and creating a new possible. I love AutoDesk and hope to call this my work home for the rest of my working career. Thanks AutoDesk!
