Pros

The work can be interesting and lots of nice people, reasonable work life balance.

Cons

Absolutely devoid of any opportunity for advancement, no salary increases for years, very cliquey and great ideas are just ignored if they don't come from the right people and there is lots of promotion of bad ideas from the same, there is a complete absence of technical leadership and management/process often just gets in the way.

Pros

The core technologists and Bell Labs are great to work with. As a Finland based company, their benefits packages are better than benefits from typical American companies.

Cons

The brain drain in Operations and OSS is shocking and only getting worse. Salespeople are lying to customers to make sales happen, only to further embarrass everyone involved with incompetent delivery. The push for Data Center and the $1Billion Nvidia investment for AI-in-Everything makes Nokia the latest "Tech Bro", AI-First disaster.
