Hey y’all. Anyone work at Lowe’s corporate or AutoDesk? I’ve accepted a job as a Sr UX designer but I may be getting an offer at AutoDesk. Pay is lower but I’ve heard really great thinks about Autodesk…. Can anyone speak to either ? #autodesk #lowe’s
leverage the lowe’s salary to renegotiate autodesk
I know a friend working at Autodesk. He is extremely happy n talks able retiring there. Stable company with huge product portfolio n profitable.
I love autodesk! It’s been great here, come join us
UX at Autodesk would expose you to a lot of cool work
I’m UX at Autodesk. Go with Autodesk. I love it and the WLB is great. Plus you’ll work on complicated stuff, which is a good portfolio booster. All my jobs have been complicated as heck and it’s definitely something hiring managers look for. I’ve been looking for a place to stay at for years/decades and Autodesk definitely fits the bill for me. I’ll stay as long as they keep me around. Also, our CEO has said twice that layoffs aren’t coming and that voluntary attrition and PIPing 1% low performers is all that’s needed to keep us stable. We are financially stable now (you may have seen 2018 layoffs), once we transitioned to a cloud/subscription model (like Adobe’s Creative Cloud).
Lowe’s isn’t a tech company. You are going to have a hard time getting great, diverse mentorship there and limits on growth. I’m at Autodesk and I genuinely feel like I’ve found a home here. I’ve been given so many opportunities to stretch myself and try new things. I am master of my own fate and the only thing limiting me is… me. I just got an opportunity to build my own job profile, which is pretty cool. How often does anyone get the opportunity to write their own job description? That being said- negotiate! There’s definitely room to get more $$.
Love it here at Autodesk. Retail is declining. Come enjoy the great corporate culture here!
Autodesk has amazing work life balance
So what did you pick? I’m late, but Lowes is a great place. Lots of opportunities to grow and learn. I’ve seen a number of people move up. Great WLB. Not perfect like most places. Little too much hate for I’m sure people that never worked there. Yes, Lowes isn’t a tech company, it’s retail 😲. no retail is not dead, we’ll be getting our full bonus again. 🤑
Lowe’s is shitty place with offshore support and Autodesk is something i feel better place what I heard from one of the director
I concur
