Siemens Digital Industries Software

"You will be treated fairly and respected. But it’s a meritocracy so you’ve got to perform! "

"It is a great place to work for all genders."

"I find my management team and co-workers more interested in my I can contribute than what kind of body I occupy."

"Great to kick start your career with only people who want to help you climb up."

"While the company does have a higher Male to Female Ratio, coworkers around me usually respect what I have to say at the table. "

"I am a female engineer in a field dominated by men, and this company appreciates and values the expertise I have to offer, nothing is based on my gender. My coworkers don't consider me a "female", they consider me a valued team member, and that's the best work environment to be in."

"This is a good company to work for. You can get more work life balance. There is not much hierarchy. "

"Over the last few years, diversity and inclusion has been a big talking point at the company, and I strongly believe it is on the up and up. While the numbers may not always reflect it, management is committing to hiring and promoting more women talent at this company. "

"Go for it! This a great place to work and collaborate!"

"You need to take charge of your career and the opportunities will come. "

"Ladies.. MG isth best place to work, grow professionally, keep yourself challenged everyday, great scope of learning , implementing your skills and experience. Most importantly you are listened here... Cheers!!!!"

"A woman can be successful here if driven in her career. Definitely a fast-paced, challenging environment but equally to both men and women. "

"Great place to work. Extremely flexible work schedules. Good pay and benefits. Family friendly."

"Everyone is truly treated equally at Mentor Graphics. You will be acknowledged for your work ethic and accomplishments. "

"While at positions of power there are hardly any women, in my time here in the last 5 years situation has been improving for the better. I have a lot more female colleagues and more new hires are women of color which is encouraging. Still, I wish they brought on more women executives to the company so that women will have a seat at the table where decisions are being made. Maternity leave is still at abysmal mandatory minimum 6 weeks and as a company that provides software to the silicone valley giants Mentor Graphics should be able to do better. "

"When I joined Mentor, I found it was like a family business even if it was a large company. And there are people from lots of different nationalities. Now as part of the Siemens family (we were acquired in 2017), we are in an even larger company which offers so many ways to interact with others, especially other women from everywhere on the globe. Diversity is not only a word for Mentor; it is a culture."

"this company provides a very good life/work balance and a gret flexibility and autonomy"

"Come be part of creating the future in Electronic Design Automation and "The Digital Twin"!"

"Siemens is a good company who is working for women stay. This company is conscious about the problem of work-life balance of women"

"Siemens offers a respectful working environment with great dynamics and opportunities for development"

"Strong supportive leadership in HR promotes women in the workplace. "

"Mentor does a good job of allowing employees to be flexible in their schedule to allow for time to deal with personal things such as appointments and family needs."

"Onsite childcare, unlimited time off, and work flexibility are major benefits for women working at Mentor. The company needs more women in leadership positions, but they are working towards this goal."

"It's by far one of the best companies I've worked for. I feel respected by my male peers. I feel I have an equal chance at success and growth as my male counterparts. "

"Very empathetic, understanding, flexible company who understands the need for equity and leads in such manner."

"People respect and support each other regardless of gender. It is fun working here. "

"Speak up and be an advocate for yourself. Same advice I would give a fellow male employee."

"Mentor is a great place to work, with some flexibility with schedules depending on individual department. During COVID, we are able to work-from-home successfully and have great IT support. There is still a lack of female management, particularly at senior levels. "

"The number of women employees at Mentor is increasing every year. The more experienced women made me feel right at home and have continued to push me upwards in my new career."

"Be innovative and find ways to work smarter, not harder."

"Mentor is an awesome company to work with. I have been with mentor for more than 13 years now. The work culture is great and I love the work life balance we have here. "

"Do the job you were hired to do. Be respectful, insightful, energetic and show initiative by opening sharing your opinion. Be the strong confident woman you are and you will be respected. "

"Great work life balance with wonderful people to help you grow. "

"Mentor Graphics truely invests in their ERG's and DE&I initiatives. Being acquired by Siemens and the Legal merger coming soon will hopefully only improve this"

"There are many women in visible leadership roles. This is a very progressive subsidy of Siemens. "

"Siemens is a place where many people have the chance to grow and succeed, with a culture that supports women. We have work to do in getting women into higher leadership positions, but the company is making progress in this area. "

"The flexibility is really wonderful, and has allowed me to maintain a great work / life balance. Siemens has also financially supported the pursuit of certifications that benefit my career path. Being such a global company, there is a ton of opportunity for those interested in trying multiple job functions, or office locations. International travel & assignments are common, especially in management! My only complaint would be that there are not many women in Executive level roles (1 to be exact as of September 2020). I've heard there is a development plan to ensure this changes, but of course this is a long process and does not happen overnight."

"Siemens Software is a great place to work. They invest heavily in learning & development as well as open conversations about career paths, career opportunities and Talent Development."

"It's a great work environment where colleagues help each other and you learn so much from some of the best minds in the industry!"

"I have worked for 5 different industries before joining Siemens. So far Siemens is the most diverse and flexible company I have seen. The corporate policy promotes diversity, gender equality and flexibility, the best company for work life balance and a great place for woman to work."

"It's a toxic culture (especially as someone just starting their career) and women are not treated nor respected "

"Do not hold your thoughts and opinions back from your colleagues. They will not fall on deaf ears."

"Siemens DISW has always exceeded my expectations when it comes to work/life balance, compensation, flexibility, and gender equality."

"Siemens is very open to women in the workplace - join us !"

"You can be anything you want to be here at Siemens. Simply make your desires known at every chance you get with senior management. Don't stop pursuing your dreams. They will come true!"

"The work life balance is great, and my management team is very supportive of giving me, and co-workers, the flexibility to have a well balanced life and career. "

"Mentor has an on-site Child Care Center which is an amazing perk. There is lot of flexibility in start times, which is amazing for working moms (like myself). Many women I work with in my department also have flexible schedules, meaning they work PT or remotely. I can't speak for all of Mentor, but within my area of focus, there are numerous sharp and collaborative women in leadership. My female colleagues lean in to each other's expertise and experience. We make each other better instead of being competitive. Overall, it is a very welcoming environment with friendly people and a beautiful campus (with an on-site gym, yoga classes, cafeteria, volleyball, line dancing classes, social events, Women's Impact Network group, and many more perks!) Hard to find an employer in the area that is large enough to offer the professional growth Mentor can, yet still have a friendly vibe and work/life balance. "

"There are not a lot of women here, but I have worked in companies with few women my entire career. In comparison, this one is the best. I feel valued at Mentor and I do not feel separate or different. Mentor has a lot of opportunities and I have the flexibility to grow my family and my career. I am able to make appointments and a schedule as I see fit. I like having great food and gym facilities on site. I have no intentions to leave this company and am in a role that challenges me and has a lot of opportunity for growth that is supported by my entire management team. My co-workers are friends and I look forward to coming in each day."

"The onsite Child Development Center is amazing and like no other in the area! The Wilsonville campus feels like a park with ponds, walking trails and so much greenery. "

"...new with the company or many years with the company, the leadership needs to hear our voice and embrace diversity from the top down"

"It is still very much the good old boy network. However, for the most part, they do embrace work flexibility."

"Still a good old boys industry but if you have the right manager you can succeed."

"Flexibility varies manager to manager, but I was lucky to have a great manager and was able to work completely flexible hours. Overall the company is changing and there's a lot of opportunity to grow. "

"I have loved working here for more than 19 years, I would recommend it to everyone."

"I've been blessed with a really supportive manager and have been able to get promoted into management. If you put in the effort, you'll see the returns for sure! And the benefits are pretty good too!"

"Great for non-administrative roles. These are treated as archaic positions. Women in sales, marketing seem to have a fair shot for promotion. "
