Nokia

Vast number of leaves.

Work-life balance is a matter of choice. Those who are not interested in doing anything can involve themselves in office politics and survive.

Cab facility, which is pretty decent.

Free mobile and bills.

Salary below market standards.

Company is in huge loss, hence impacting the huge bonus component they project.

Very poor compensation to freshers from all colleges except IITs.

Bad projects, which is like everyone does the same work, which is testing across all teams.

Inexperienced managers who are not capable of doing anything except to shout at employees.

Micromanagement after a new director took over, includes dirty politics.

Very bad hikes.

Certain teams try to save their asses off even though there is no future in Nokia.

Windows phones is a good thing to come in the future, but not in the near future, which is a disadvantage for people looking for long-term career plans.

90% of the crowd are incompetent people. So, if you are from a top college as a fresher or from a good company with a decent technical background, then frustration is sure to creep in.

Worst workspace. All are interested in looking into what others do in the office rather than minding their own business.

Don't expect team lunches or team outings.

With the present company situation, it is more likely that the cab facility and unlimited mobile bills are likely to get axed.

Please scrap these useless teams in Bangalore which do nothing in the name of R&D.
