Pros
This is the best company I've ever worked at, and I've been in the workforce a long time! We have exceptional senior leaders who are forward thinking, focused on customer satisfaction, care about diversity and inclusion, and are approachable, authentic individuals. They are driving a major company-wide culture change initiative by introducing values and ways we work together, then reinforcing these messages every chance they get. This is both inspiring and equipping us to succeed in the future. My colleagues are super smart yet humble, nice, and fun to work with. They care about our products and customers, and go the extra mile to make sure that our products are the best and our customers are beyond satisfied. We come together on work projects, celebrations, employee resource groups, and informally which makes the working environment comfortable yet stimulating. Our offices around the world are stylish and uniquely designed. Many of us work with colleagues based in other countries and despite time zone and cultural differences, we all feel like we're on the same team. Everyone here is ready and able to pitch in if someone needs help. My manager is fantastic and my teammates are the best, which makes coming to work a pleasure (and how many times can you say that?). We’re able to telecommute when it makes sense, but I’d rather be in the office because my teammates always enhance the work I’m doing. I love the projects I’m working on because they have a global impact that helps shape the future of the company, which inspires me to do my best work! For an ‘older’ tech company, Autodesk is purposefully encouraging a ‘start-up’ type environment where we act with courage and move quickly. With recent acquisitions and internal changes, we’re positioned to DOMINATE the industries we’re focusing on, which makes our future look pretty rosy. All of this makes Autodesk one of the most exciting places to be, so if you get a chance to join us, TAKE IT!
