Pros

There is a lot of talented and driven people at Nokia, and the latest products are really amazing. Nokia has managed to pull itself back from the brink of collapse. It went from being the best to not even being a contender. The attitude of the people at Nokia changed all that, and the company is now starting to recover and look strong again.

Cons

Nokia has always been slow to respond to change. Whether that change has been in the economy or the ecosystem the response has always been too slow. Another major minus are the salaries. The pay is not good!

A great work environment that offers competative pay and benefits but not much room for career growth.

Business Outlook

Pros

The work environment is very flexible, there are also work from home days that can be agreed. Salary and benefits are very competative.

Cons

IT has just recently been outsourced so there are limited career options here in that field. The company is still struggling with profitability so there may be future headcount reductions in the future.

Pros

It is a big telecommunication company Good roles in the telecommunication field. Very good office space in India

Cons

I was given a fresher grade while entering with almost four years of experience. Nothing was ever done to fix my situation in spite of repeated requests One of my engineering batch-mates had a role two levels above mine.
