Pros
Siemens continues to pay salaries even though the entity maybe losing money.
Cons
Many of the skills expected to be possessed by senior management are non-existent. Management of companies is completely centralised in Munich and lin-country personnel simply follow directives. Managament is by computer, guidelines and circulars leading to treatment of employees which is extremely impersonal, often impolite, usually rude and bullying. Stifles initiative and creativity... higly bureaucratized.
