Pros

Worked for more than 10+ years and fortunate to work with high performing teams. Nokia is employee friendly, having Global environment.

Cons

There is huge disparity in salaries specially in India. Many cases where higher grade is getting less salary than lower grade. You can imagine Line manger (LM) is getting lower salary than his team member. Performance review is on paper and fully based on your relation with LM. Most of the LMs are incompetent's as they are with the company for many years and grow based on PR not because of their performance (or they never thought to upgrade themselves)

Pros

Great co-workers and local management. Interesting work projects. Fully committed to AI-enabled software development.

Cons

Unwritten expectation for evenings and weekend additional work. Felt like upper management viewed us as costs, instead of people.
