Pros

Signify is a multinational corporation charting the path in smart lighting space, both consumer and enterprise. While this does not directly relate to IoT development group, there is some satisfaction to be possibly had from being a part of larger organization developing some interesting and impactful products and services.

Cons

Top-down, aggressive, punitive and, largely, incompetent people management style with not much to compensate for it on a job content side of things: poorly designed and implemented systems, terrible development culture, mountains of tech debt, fire drills and other such consequences to the above. No innovation to be found in this sad place. And on the compensation side: no equity save for lame share purchase plan and high deductible health insurance.

Pros

Great Benefits. bag on micro management, usually low. Good departmental teamwork

Cons

Silo-strategy, with departments and sectors setup as segregated, causes reactionary decision making rather than smart proactive progression in improvement initiative buy-in. Inter-departmental LEAN thinking can be challenging.
