Pros

Experience in a multinational, hi tech engineering company. Working with a good mix of international people. Experience in a rapidly expanding and exciting industry sector. Good professional experience can be gained quickly due to the short product cycle times. English widely spoken alongside Danish, Finnish etc Flexible working conditions. Good canteen. Good location by the waterfront. Good building design. Good fitness facilities.

Cons

"Country Club Institution" atmosphere - e.g. employees more interested in canteen goodies than job. Very few people working after 4.30pm - demotivational, far from inspirational. Local High Level Management - "Nepotistic" "Coat-tailors", widely seen as first to new opportunities. The first to jump ship when seas are stormy! Typical insular small country type mentality. Not generally reflective of Nokia. Maybe it seems harsh, but hardly surprising for a small-country European multinational which has become an ancient dianosaur (i.e. out of touch, oversized and slow), and which now finds itself on the edge of extinction. Dishonest self serving middle management. Politically based and inconsistent investment rationale e.g. travel / hiring etc. Depends on having the right connections, not what one can do for Nokia.
