Pros

WAS a great company to work for. Clear processes, great atmosphere, Global teams were great. Very high tech. They did everything first....but didnt follow thru with commercialization.

Cons

No money spent on marketing in USA. Microsoft management people now in place. They dont care about the individuals that were there and made Nokia one of top 6 brands in world. They just layed them all off and replace with California MS people.

Pros

The core technologists and Bell Labs are great to work with. As a Finland based company, their benefits packages are better than benefits from typical American companies.

Cons

The brain drain in Operations and OSS is shocking and only getting worse. Salespeople are lying to customers to make sales happen, only to further embarrass everyone involved with incompetent delivery. The push for Data Center and the $1Billion Nvidia investment for AI-in-Everything makes Nokia the latest "Tech Bro", AI-First disaster.
