Pros

I worked from home, so take my review with a grain of salt. The pay is good, the benefits are fantastic, and working from home really is a game changer. Most of my coworkers were friendly as well, at least as friendly as you can be over Skype.

Cons

A lot of the self-improvement initiatives that Autodesk offers are really only available in person. So, unless you live near one of their major offices, mainly their West Coast office in the US, you won't have access to those opportunities.

The inter-department communication could be better, as I saw a fair bit of inefficiencies arise from a lack of shared goals between teams, and thus dependencies across teams resulted in bottlenecks.

Advice to Management

Just make sure teams that are dependent on each other have their goals more aligned, so helping another team doesn't feel like you're hamstringing your own team.
