Pros

To work for the largest mobile handset manufacturer is a pleasure. The staff are great, and people are motivated to do a good job. The work environment and facilities are great. It is very motivating, and the staff reflect that. Recognition is greatly looked upon in certain teams. Depending on the manager, your work will be recognized by others quite well, and room for growth is possible.

Cons

Too much reorganization is going on. Nokia needs to stay competitive, especially in the North American market, where it is drastically falling behind in all the latest trends. We have great products, but they don't come out in time, and it always seems that we're the followers instead of the innovators.

Senior management is now encouraging that and restructuring the organization in a way so that we can create products and not platforms. Hopefully, this transition will create just that and get us back on top and become that company we were once before.

Advice to Management

Don't forget about the staff who make Nokia products.
