Pros

For a software professional, software is its primary business. There is opportunity to work on many different projects, and on many different platforms. Agile development really exists here. The healthcare industry is challenging, and there's no shortage of work that needs to be done. Interaction with customers is both educational and rewarding. The local history of the company is very interesting. If you like a multi-cultural work experience, there are people working here from all over the world. The size of the parent company gives the opportunity to move around and try other jobs. While benefits are shrinking, they are still better than many other companies.

Cons

Management is short-term focused. They decide to do one thing, then oops, that was wrong. Stop everything. Let's do this instead. Some management is very sleazy and back-handed. People are afraid, and will never speak up.

Pros

Siemens gives you opportunities to play with the latest technologies and to get used to work on large projects/products under strict QA procedures. Moreover, you're normally part of a team but you can arrange your time and tasks with a good level of independence.

Cons

Bureaucracy plays a key role on every activity and sometimes it's too stiff; it also affects career progression and moving forward from your position takes ages. Also, most of the times management decisions are not properly advertised to the employees and business strategies are not clear.
