Pros
  1. Great engineering company, unlike some small companies where managers dominate. At Nokia, engineers are the key value.

  2. Many senior employees are nearing retirement age, presenting more opportunities for young engineers.

  3. Good benefits with not too much pressure from management.

  4. With 5G emerging, Nokia has a chance to return to prominence. If you join now, there might be something to expect in the near future.

Cons
  1. If you like city life, it might not be a good idea to work in Nokia.

  2. Many colleagues are senior engineers, not just in their levels, but also in age. No offense. You can learn a lot from them about telecom knowledge, but it means there won't be that many company events, as most of them are not of that age.

  3. Lunch is boring.

Advice to Management
  1. Push the engineers more.
  2. Plan in advance.
