Nokia reviews

This was once a great innovative Finnish company. After 10yrs with Rajeev Suri at the helm it has become an Indo-Finnish service corporation too big to change and innovate, instead it focuses all its energy on cutting costs and outsourcing work to India. Nokia was quite a diverse company but now all management positions are occupied by Indians, When I left I was the only non-Indian on my team. Despite many the many cost cutting layoffs, Nokia never dismisses any senior managers, directors or vice presidents. These well paid do-nothing oligarchs simply rotate job roles every 6months to a year. Also, despite the NAM region being their biggest and most profitable region, all decisions are made by Global, probably at the spa of Karaportii

If you want a real career, avoid this old company: - Lack of innovation, so you will work on old Systems and procedures. - The longer you stay, the less you know. So you have the risk to get stuck - Salary way below the industry. Raises of 1% are the typical way to show appreciation for best engineers. - Promotions are scarce. - Moving many units to India. - Working with too many teams in India (meetings on the AM) - Company is divided into infinite groups - Dinosaur cemetery (at least in the US ) .
