Pros

I am afraid I can't point out not even a single good aspect for working at Nokia. I mean if you want a job in which you can just get laid off, Nokia is the place to go. If you want your brain to get deleted go to Nokia :). If you are a girl and you like having sexual. fun, you can go to there to promote by charming the sloppy men.

Cons

Your brain gets deleted and jammed. Management is straight-up bad, or better said plain bad. Managers are just wannabees, they are not even able to talk, therefore they just have an abusive behavior and language. You don't get salary raises. You are just wasting your time/life in that place
