Once a great nordic success story now an Asian IT service company
Pros
Good benefits Healthy work life balance Ability to coast along doing nothing
Cons
This was once a great innovative Finnish company. After 10yrs with Rajeev Suri at the helm it has become an Indo-Finnish service corporation too big to change and innovate, instead it focuses all its energy on cutting costs and outsourcing work to India. Nokia was quite a diverse company but now all management positions are occupied by Indians, When I left I was the only non-Indian on my team. Despite many the many cost cutting layoffs, Nokia never dismisses any senior managers, directors or vice presidents. These well paid do-nothing oligarchs simply rotate job roles every 6months to a year. Also, despite the NAM region being their biggest and most profitable region, all decisions are made by Global, probably at the spa of Karaportii
