Pros

Best bosses I've ever had. Best tools, best pay and best bonuses. Best opportunities for job rotation, self development and career building.

Cons

Consultations and work force reductions ongoing constantly. That means that no job security, and no organizational security, and no working peace because everything (organization, people) around you is constantly changing. Half the time I feel I need to get a new job FAST because I can't take this sort of stress about keeping my job in a less than optimal economy with a family to support.

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.
