Pros

Good pay, compelling work, amazing technology, fantastic work environment and offices, gives back to the community, and great vision. Autodesk's vision is to help people imagine, design, and create a better world.

Cons

The politics and bureaucracy can be frustrating and slow down progress.

There's a bit of a "club" at the exec level, and they can be disconnected from the boots on the ground.

Advice to Management

Solicit skip-level inquiries to find out what's going on in the company. Get the truth about what people really think about various topics, initiatives, and management.

The annual engagement survey doesn't cut it.

Maybe consider using something like Waggl to get real-time, ongoing feedback.
