Pros

WAS a great company to work for. Clear processes, great atmosphere, Global teams were great. Very high tech. They did everything first....but didnt follow thru with commercialization.

Cons

No money spent on marketing in USA. Microsoft management people now in place. They dont care about the individuals that were there and made Nokia one of top 6 brands in world. They just layed them all off and replace with California MS people.

Pros

Decent starting salary, good benefits, generous PTO

Cons

1% raises forever. Last promotion I got to Principal had no raise but a bump in bonus percentage. Now they are giving kids 8-12% raises and they have less than 5 yrs. Once you hit about 5 yrs you will get the 1% a yr and be pigeon holed into a specific job. Then good luck trying to change.
