Ventajas

Great company doing good things for the world and is highly profitable Good RSU compensation Depending on the organization & VP you report into, great work-life-balance and meaningful work

Desventajas

Autodesk is constant change of reorgs with VPs departing, orgs being merged, and new VPs arriving. This makes for a fractured company culture and as an employee, its up to you to roll with the changes, often this can make for significant changes to your day-to-day. Within PSET (there are a few orgs within Autodesk), there is a top-down leadership culture that is suffocating. Its interesting that Autodesk is considered an innovative company, the pattern over the last few years has been to disempower engineering creativity, push out talented engineers, and replace engineering talent overseas. Cost cutting has been a fixture of Autodesk strategy, not investment in innovation. This has created an inefficient engineering culture and a slow pace of delivery. Its recommended to avoid any teams related to the Analytics Data Platform, the VP and the leadership team are unethical and toxic. The VP openly talks about being a 'dictator' (his words), says inappropriate things, often laughs about HR, and plays petty politics. There is a strong vibe that performance is more about 'kissing the ring' than building anything durable and reliable.

Ventajas

Autodesk has, hands down, one of the warmest and most supportive corporate cultures I’ve ever experienced. From day one, people were welcoming, respectful, kind, and genuinely available to help. Even as a contract worker, I never felt like an outsider. I felt included, trusted, and treated like part of the team. The marketing team was an incredible group: collaborative, smart, generous with their time, and always willing to answer questions. Autodesk also has a true teaching culture. You never feel silly for asking questions, and there is a clear willingness across teams to help people learn, improve, and succeed. Operationally, the company was also impressively efficient. The technology, meeting tools, scheduling systems, and general workflows made it easy to connect with people, set appointments, collaborate, and keep work moving without unnecessary friction. Overall, Autodesk set the bar for what a healthy corporate culture can feel like: organized, human, respectful, inclusive, and genuinely collaborative. Pros: Warm culture, helpful people, strong tools and technology, respectful teams, inclusive environment, great marketing organization.

Desventajas

As a contractor, I only wish the experience had been longer.
