Pros

To work for the largest mobile handset manufacturer is a pleasure. The staff are great and people are motivated to do a good job. Work environment and facilities are great. It is very motivating and the staff reflect off of that. Recognition is greatly looked upon as in certain teams. Depending on the Manager, your work will be recognized by others quite well and room for growth is possible.

Cons

Too much re-organization going on. Nokia needs to stay competitive especially in the North American Market where they are drastically falling behind in all the latest trends. We have great products, but they don't come out in time and it always seems that we're the followers instead of the innovators. Senior mgmt are now encouraging that and restructuring the organization in a way so that we can create products and not platforms. Hopefully this transition will create just that and get us back on top and become that company we were once before.

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.
