Pros

Excellent communities of highly motivated and intelligent staff, I enjoyed working with a wide variety of people and got exposure to a large number of roles

Cons

Corporate strategy was not competitive in the 3GPP marketplace - lack of investment in R&D meant a struggling battle of "doing a lot more with a lot less" which could not compete against other manufacturers - the last 5+ years has been a case of bolstering the company's cash position to spin off sub divisions.

Pros

Excellent work-life balance: The company respects personal time and maintains a healthy, sustainable work environment. Strong and supportive leadership: Management is genuinely invested in employee success and actively encourages upskilling. Opportunities for technical diversification: I joined as a Salesforce CPQ Developer, and leadership supported me in training for MuleSoft alongside my existing role. I am now handling both platforms and built deep expertise in MuleSoft Integration by successfully completing 4 projects. Great career growth: Thanks to the leadership team's encouragement and the opportunities provided, there is a clear, proven path for expanding my technical stack and advancing my career.

Cons

I do not have any cons to report at this time. It has been a great place to work and grow my career.
