Decent work environment, lots of politics

Business Outlook

Pros

Most of the employees are friendly, with time comes nice vacation packages and other benefits, bus/tram pass (if requested). If you have ambition you can stand out.

Cons

The internals of the company have become more political. A person used to be promoted based on merit, now it is about who you know.

Pros

Great people: very smart, capable and friendly. They are loathe to do layoffs, thought they did one in 2009 of about 5%

Cons

Terrible management at highest level. Regulatory compliance is not a priority, Everything is driven by Engineering and the priority is to ship product - whatever it takes.
