Nokia reviews

No job security. You are forced to look for a new team to keep your job every 6 months. You will go nowhere in your career. Too slow to react to changes. Many people doing the same thing without knowledge of what is happening in the other parts of the organistation.

Nokia is too big to maneuver its way out of a wet paper bag. Because of the need to work in the (in)famous matrixed organization the common goals are not always so common. Perfect example is the schism that exists between the Services and the Devices business groups. The engineering mindset dominates the business culture in devices and is defined by a process oriented 100% quality requirement within a logistics/supply chain environment. Services as a counter point is required by market forces to be more nimble and move at "entreprenuerial speeds". Unfortunately these two cultures clash horribly and to enjoy a decent P/E ratio Nokia will need to become much more successful and rapidly accelerate it's Mobile SW and Services business unit. The fact though is that internally there is a great deal of doubt as to executive mgt's ability to make this happen in a satisfactory timeframe.
