Pros

You work with lots of smart colleagues at Autodesk Consulting. Also work with big name clients. There is an Ethics Compliance Hotline. Business as a whole is doing great.

Cons

The DMs and PMs under Autodesk consulting are doorkeepers. The DMs and PMs block the business growth opportunities by using all kinds of excuses. Tired of the DMs and PMs' performative but hollow statements, since the DMs and PMs do not have any solid technical outputs to provide. Meanwhile the DMs and PMs do not allow tech consultants to meet clients in person for business developments. Full of bureaucracy dealing with the DMs and PMs. Even for project related travels, they are made too complicated to happen. There is a lack of trust between director management and the consultants.

Pros

The individual contributors, your peers you work with day in and day out are fantastic people! At the IC level, for the most part, it feels like everyone is in the fight together. The work/life balance is good depending on which business unit/team you're aligned with. The benefits are pretty solid, especially the 6 week sabbatical.

Cons

Autodesk moves at the pace of a snail, very slow to take action on anything. Selling is very difficult with all the undocumented approvals, processes, red tape and very few people are willing to actually help! Leadership doesn't care about the people their decisions impact. Feedback is rarely listened to and acted upon. Pay is terrible compared to competitors in this space. Autodesk has embraced a ton of change over the last few years with new marketing, sales and IT leadership and it shows. They are not shy in showing their desire to be the next Oracle at the expense of their people. They are constantly changing tools, processes, people, roles, you name it so you feel like you're under water constantly. Lipstick on a pig.
