Pros
1. Finnish people are nice to work with 2. On-time salary
Cons
1. If you are stuck with one team and want to learn additional skills, it is almost impossible in GEC, as they want you to work on the same team until you die. Job shadowing is only in HR policy but not in actual implementation as far as GEC is concerned. 2. In GEC they will use the notice period serving time to their will. If you have a better opportunity and are willing to pay the remaining unserviced time of notice period they won't agree to that. And force you to serve the notice period thus you lose the better opportunity at hand. And the funny thing is, if you join the competitor company, even though you have served the notice period as mentioned in the employment contract, they will not provide the experience certificate and would like to play games with your future. 3. The funny thing is even if you raise a serious complaint against your manager, they will ask you to continue working under them but will not take any disciplinary action against them. It includes that even if you are experiencing severe mental stress they could not care less about that. 4. My team seniors are there only to take orders from the manager and never collaborate with the junior engineers. This will enable them to only provide orders from the top and expect them(the juniors) to complete work on time in the most unempathetic manner. 5, Mostly in GEC you will get only lift industry-specific experience and cannot extend your job search outside the elevator industry. This will give only KONE and its competitors your employment opportunity but KONE won't provide you the experience certificate if you happen to join the competitor, funny right? 6. In my tenure here, in this team I have experienced severe male dominance and come across many misogynistic male employees 7. My manager is a malignant presence, a liar and a perpetual bully. The entire team would agree with me on this but they are powerless when it comes to removing the manager from his position.
